What causes tectonic plates to move?

• The up and down motion of Earth's tides causes the plates to move past each other.

• Earth's spin causes each tectonic plate to slide past one another.

• Heated magma rises to Earth's crust, spreading it apart and moving each plate.

• A combination of all of these.

The Theory of Continental Drift states that the land masses called continents were once close together and have drifted apart over time. What is the strongest evidence to support this theory?

• The migration patterns of birds

• The periodic climate changes of Earth.

• The large variety of animals on each continent

• The similarity of fossils on different continents.
