The theory of the continental drift explained how the continents had shifted their original positions. Once all joined together, as a "Urkontinent." Many people thought it was the mountains making them sink, but then that was dismissed because continental rocks were too light to sink to the ocean floor.
The Earth's rocky outer crust solidified billions of
years ago, soon after the Earth formed. This crust is not a solid
shell; it is broken up into huge, thick plates that drift atop the soft,
underlying mantle.
The plates are made of rock and drift all over the globe; they move both
horizontally (sideways) and vertically (up and down). Over long
periods of time, the plates also change in size as their margins are
added to, crushed together, or pushed back into the Earth's mantle. These plates are from 50 to 250 miles (80 to 400 km) thick.
