Answer:

There are many shreds of evidence that support the theory of plate tectonics and make it such a firmly believed idea. These pieces of evidence include fossils, glaciers, earthquakes and volcanic activity, the shape of continents, the magnetism of rocks on the seafloor, the mid-ocean ridge system, and others.

Fossils give an idea of the location of the plants and animals that once existed. Earthquakes and volcanic activity also help in determining the cause of the boundaries and rifts formed. The shape of the continents seems to be fit with one other that gives the idea that these were together and moved away from each other.

What kinds of traits do not evolve through natural selection?

Harrizon [31]

Natural selection doesn't favor traits that are somehow inherently superior. Instead, it favors traits that are beneficial (that is, help an organism survive and reproduce more effectively than its peers) in a specific environment. Traits that are helpful in one environment might actually be harmful in another.

The answer would certainty relate less to moving and a part itself, and more towards coordination or other terms (for which there are many), as this question is quite subjective.
