What else can I help you with?
Was Wegener's continental drift hypothesis weakened because of viable mechanism for moving the continents was lacking?
Definitely. Wegener seems to have believed that the continents plowed through the oceanic crust like a ship plowing through water. The geologists of the day couldn't see how that could happen, mainly because it can't. Eventually, though, they came to realize that what's really happening is that the oceanic crust is moving on its own and carrying the continents with it. That's a lot more rational, but figuring that out required knowing that there are mid-ocean ridges, with lots of volcanic activity; that the oceanic crust is newest at those ridges and older as you get farther away; knowledge of where earthquakes occur worldwide; and many, many other things that we only first encountered in the era around World War II, long after Wegener was dead, and only started to get a real handle on decades after even that.
If the Earth's mantle were completely solid what plates could not move around?
If the Earth's mantle were completely solid, the tectonic plates, which are primarily composed of the Earth's crust and the uppermost part of the mantle (lithosphere), would be unable to move. This means that the plates, including the continental plates like the North American and Eurasian plates, as well as oceanic plates like the Pacific and Nazca plates, would become immobilized. The lack of movement would halt processes like continental drift, subduction, and seafloor spreading, fundamentally altering the planet's geology and surface dynamics.
