How do apparent polar-wander paths show that the continents rather than the poles have moved?

Apparent polar-wander paths show that the continents have moved because the paths traced by the magnetic poles from different time periods do not align with the current geographic North Pole. This discrepancy implies that the continents must have shifted positions relative to the poles over time.

How magnetic reversal happened?

The Earth's magnetic field is created by electric currents flowing roughly parallel to the Equator. There is not necessarily just the one electrical path, and what we see is the net result of several paths. It follows that if some of the paths are more convoluted that others, the apparent Pole will move accordingly. At the moment in the South Atlantic there is an area that appears to be reversing its polarity. There is little firm data as to the time a reversal takes. The Earth's magnetic field seems to protect the Earth from a flow of charged particles, or rather, it concentrates them in polar regions.
