The lithosphere is the layer that moves with the tectonic plates. The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the upper part of the mantle, and it is broken into tectonic plates that move and interact with each other.
The aesthenosphere, which is located in the top part of the Earth's mantle is the layer lying underneath the tectonic plates. Collective movement in these plates cause a gradual rise in the aesthenosphere, thereby resulting to land elevation.
The part of Earth's outer layer that moves are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid layer of the mantle and interact with each other at plate boundaries, causing geological events like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
The outer layer of the earth where the land masses are is called the crust
A tectonic plate is a large crust layer that moves as one unit across the Earth's surface. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and interact at their boundaries, where most geological activity occurs.
The upper layer. It is filled with melted liquid.

The middle layer of earth that is MANTLE. It has the tectonic plates floating on it.

Tectonic plates float on an underlying molten layer.
Because tectonic plates move, therefore if the continent is on it, it moves with it!

Tectonic Plates.
The worlds tectonic plates slide on the earths mantle.
The tectonic plates are located in Earth's lithosphere, which is the outermost layer of the planet. The lithosphere is divided into several large and small tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below. Movements of these plates are responsible for earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the shaping of Earth's surface features.
