What theory that continents move apart form each other?
The action of continents drifting apart from each other is called, "Continental Drift". It is no longer a theory, as it has been proven to be so. Of course, as certain continents move apart from each other, they also are moving closer to other continents.
What are two types of ways that continents move?
They move away from each other in other words they are shifting.

Were do continents move?
Continents move due to the process of plate tectonics, where the Earth's outer shell is divided into several large, rigid plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them. These plates can move and interact with each other, resulting in phenomena like the drifting of continents, earthquakes, and volcanic activity.
What are the parts of the plate that move when plates move?
continents
What is the theory that states continents have moved to there positions?
the theory that states continents have move is that every year the continents move 1 inch and after a year they move 365 inches you can tell they move by them being one big continent called PANGAEA. you guys are really stupid if you listen to my friend
How rifting and accretion change the shapes of continents?

What is it called when two continents separate?

Do the earth's continents move?
The continents are situated on top of tectonic plates which float on the Earth's magma under the crust. This means that the plates move about, which means yes, the continents will move but it will be very, VERY slow.
