The most probable explanation  for movement of continental and oceanic plates is caused by convection currents in the molten rock in Earth's mantle below the earth's crust

Explanation:

  • The movement of the tectonic plates around the surface of earth is very rigid because it is very cold.
  • The lithosphere includes the upper mantle of the earth's crust,  the continental and oceanic crust.
  • The convection currents move the mantle and the motions break the lithosphere into plates.
  • These plates move around the surface of the earth and they move around and  collide with each other.
  • This process results in shifts of continents, and pushes up mountains. The earthquakes and volcanoes are the results of this tectonic movement over a short term period.
  • The long-term results in shifts of the tectonic plates where the there is a movement of the entire continents over period of millions of years.
