It is clear how the tectonic plates probably moved.

Why and how do tectonic plates move?

tectonic plates move because they float on the earth's liquid mantle. This mantle, in turn, also moves due to convection currents that cause the hot rock to rise, give off some heat, and then fall. This fluid mantle phenomenon generates swirls of liquid rock under the Earth's crust that are transferred to the plates (BBC, 2011).

Tectonic plates are underground layers that move, rise, and sometimes collapse, and whose movement and shock can cause the phenomena of continental drift, earthquakes, the birth of volcanoes, the formation of mountains and ocean trenches.

The depth of the liquid mantle makes it difficult to study, so the nature of its behavior has not yet been fully determined. However, it is believed that plate tectonic movements are caused in response to sudden stresses, and not due to major changes in temperature.

The process of formation of tectonic plates or plate tectonics can take hundreds of billions of years. This process does not occur evenly, as small pieces of plaque can join together, causing ground shaking that varies in intensity and duration (Briney, 2016).

Besides the process of convection, there is another variable that makes the plates move, and that is gravity. This force causes the tectonic plates to move several centimeters each year, causing the plates to move apart enormously over millions of years.
