Because of plate techtonics
What else can I help you with?
What are the parts of the plate that move when plates move?
continents
How rifting and accretion change the shapes of continents?
they can increase or move the size of the continents
What cause the continents to move?
Plate Activity causes it to move.
From where to where did the continents move?
from north to south
What made continents move?
The continents moved because of the tectonic plates of earth that they rest on.
Why did the continents move?
The continents move due to plate tectonics, which is the movement of the Earth's lithosphere plates on the asthenosphere beneath them. This movement is caused by convection currents in the mantle, leading to the drifting of continents over millions of years.
How they measured the continents move?
by how the nature moved
What is called when continents move?
Continental drift.
Why did our ancestors move to other continents?
to work
Idea that continents move on Earth's surface?
The idea that continents move slowly across the earth's surface is called the continental drift.
How do the tectonic plates moved the continents?
The continents are part of Earth's tectonic plate system, when the plates move the continents move with them. The plate movement is driven by slow mantle convection driven by the heat in Earth's core.
What is the reason why the continents move?
The reason continents move is because in the earth there are plates. The plates move because in the upper mantle (lithosphere) is hot liquid and it shoots up and shift the plates.
