The idea of that the continents were shifting was first observed by Abraham Ortelius in 1596 and further examined in the early 1900's and in the 1960's when the theory of plate tectonics were developed, scientists were able to understand it more clearly.
Continents are moving across the Earth's Surface under the Continental drift One continent is moving significantly more slowly than the others because of plate tectonics.

Wind and moving water reshape the Earth's surface through the process of erosion.
Continents are not tecnically moving 'away' from each other, they are just moving. This is due to the sub continent plates and the volcanic activity in the ocean. As new volcanic matter from the earths core comes to the surface it pushes continental plates apart.

No the continents are.
Lithospheric plates are a number of rigid but moving pieces of earths surface.

no
Their evidence comes from rocks at earths surface.
