SOUTH AMERICAN 1.5 meters 7,500 meters 15,000 meters

NORTH AMERICAN 1.2 meters 6,000 meters 12,000 meters

2. The continent the moves the fastest is the African continent, I think it will get close to European
continent in 500,000 years because they are only 9 miles away from each other.

3. The continent that moves the slowest is the North American continents, in 1 million years this
continent will be 12,000 meters away from its previous location.

4. Yes, due to plate tectonics and other geological events or processes such as subduction process and
convection process, there is no permanent place for continents as they were in their place right now,
they are either colliding, diverging or sliding each other.
