the movement of convection currents in the mantle is the cause of plate motion.
Continental drift :)
recorrective vergence movement
Depends on what you mean. If you mean feet/sec, it's already a movement speed. if it's frames per second, it depends on how large the frame was as well as how many frames the object is present in the frame.
The Olympic flag has a white background, with five interlaced rings in the center: blue, yellow, black, green and red. This design is symbolic and represents the five inhabited continents of the world, united by Olympic competition, while the six colors are those that appear on all the national flags of the world at the present time.
The present participle is arising.

the Hypothesis is Based on an apparent fit between Africa and South America,Wegener hypothesized that at one time all continents were joined together in a "supercontinent" called Pangaea. The supercontinent eventually broke into the smaller continents, which then "drifted" towards their present positions.
It's called the Continental Drift but scientists changed it to Plate Tectonics in 1960.
Continental drift :)
Asia was the continet that wasnt part of it.
All of the present day continents were part of Pangaea. However, until the supercontinent broke up, these future continents were not distinct from one another in any significant way.
Alfred Wegener
Through the passage of time, the continents have gradually moved across the earth's surface into their present positions. This is called the continental drift.
The Mesozoic Supercontinent is known as Gondwana or Gondwanaland.
