Answer:

Over millions of years, the continents drift into new configurations. Convection in the molten rock of Earth's mantle drives the movement of the plates. Hotter material rises to the surface, while cooler material sinks toward the core.

Answer:

Wegener suggested that perhaps the rotation of the Earth caused the continents to shift towards and apart from each other. (It doesn't.) Today, we know that the continents rest on massive slabs of rock called tectonic plates. The plates are always moving and interacting in a process called plate tectonics.I hope it is true and it will help you
