Answer:

According to this theory, Earth's crust is broken into roughly 20 sections called tectonic plates on which the continents ride. ... Plate tectonics explains why Earth's continents are moving; the theory of continental drift did not provide an explanation. Therefore, the theory of plate tectonics is more complete.

How are the theories of continental drift and plate tectonics similar?

Plate tectonics is Wegener's theory of continental drift reworked. The force needed to move the continents is proposed to be convection currents in the mantle. The continents are seen as part of large plates of crust that are moved by the convection currents in the mantle.

How are they different?​

Continental drift believes that the continents moved because the magnetism of the sea floor. Plate tectonics believes that the lithosphere & the asthenosphere of the continents caused them to move.
