How do scientists explain the arrangement of continents today?

Scientists explain the arrangement of continents today through the theory of plate tectonics. This theory states that the Earth's lithosphere is divided into several large plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath. Movements of these plates through processes like seafloor spreading, subduction, and continental drift have shaped the current arrangement of continents.
