An environmental change is occurring due to continents shifting and moving to different parts of Earth’s surface. What kind of change is this?

Continents move as tectonic plates shift, a process that happens very slowly over millions of years. This makes it a long-term environmental change due to tectonic plate movement, not a short-term effect of warming or solar energy. The correct choice is B, “a long-term change due to tectonic plate movement.”
