continetal plate
seafloor
Tectonic Plates can't carry both ocean floor and continents on the same plate.
magma is very hot so as it boils it moves the plates of the earth causing the continents to slowly move apart
The continents are embedded in the top side of crustal plates which float on the surface of the mantle. Convection currents in the mantle carry the plates around and the embedded continents travel along.
true. only one of them can be moved at one time
A continent is what floats on top of the plate. There are continental and oceanic plates. The continents float on the continental plate and the ocean sits on the oceanic plate. But there are also plates that carry both continents and oceans. The plates are what causes continental drift. So basically plates are what carry the continents and oceans.
Either they are near fault lines or near tectonic plates (what carry continents)

the plates surrounding the continents
these are the plates under the land and they are spins round and when they meet and they form the continents
Tectonic plates.
Plates play a role in Pangaea changing into 7 continents because there are 7 major plates in the world. These plates are being moved by sea-floor spreading, pulling the continents along with them.
