Answer 1

Your answer is..... True

Answer 2

True

The continents on which we live have been moving their locations for millions of years and will continue to move in the future.

• They occasionally join forces and form a supercontinent, which lasts for a few hundred million years before dissolving. The plates gradually separate, scatter, and drift apart until coming back together again after another 400–600 million years.
• The crustal rocks may jar violently against one another at the "seams" where tectonic plates collide, resulting in earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The numerous earthquakes that take place in California are caused by the tectonic plates moving rather quickly underneath the state.
• We now understand that the continents are supported by enormous rock slabs known as tectonic plates. Plate tectonics is the name of the process in which the plates are constantly moving and interacting. Even now, the continents are continuously shifting.
• They looked at two possibilities: In the first, practically all of the continents move into the Northern Hemisphere in the next 200 million years, leaving Antarctica by itself in the Southern Hemisphere; in the second, a supercontinent forms around the equator and moves into the next 250 million years.
