Basically plate tectonics is movement of lithospheric plates on the semisolid asthenosphere, the plates move because of the convectional current produced in mantel of earth. when these plates colloid with each other energy is released in the form of earthquake.
the two plates slide in directions opposite eachother.
for example, the Pacific and North American plates slide next to eachother at the San Andreas Fault, but dont push toward or apart of eachother.
Tectonic plates are sections of the Earth's crust, which float on the mantle beneath the crust. You can see where plates end at fault lines, like the San Andreas fault line in the USA, These plates are constantly shifting, and if they collide, the shockwave can cause an earthquake and/or Tsunami
They float around on the earths crust, occasionally crashing / rubbing. This is the cause of earthquakes and mountain ranges.
Tectonic Plates are large plates of a rock. When they push together they form mountains or volcanos. So Tectonic Plates are just rocks who push together.
Volcanoes, earthquakes, mountains, trenches, fissures, etc.
Tectonic plates explain why mountains and earthquakes happen. If tectonic plates didn't exist then there would be no mountains.
Convergent boundaries create trenches, where as divergent boundaries create ridges.
ThE tEcT0nIc plAtes are the plates which move around the earth and earthquake creates tectonic plate
movement of tectonic plates leads to earth quakes
Transform Boundary
Convergent Boundary is a result of two tectonic plates colliding. Divergent boundary is the process where to tectonic plates move away from each other. if two tectonic plates move away from each other (diverge), each will collide with another plate (converge) on the opposite side of the divergent boundary, forming a convergent boundary with another tectonic plate.
A Transform Boundary Is When Two Tectonic Plates Slide By One Another
At a divergent boundary tectonic plates move apart.
no divergent boundary
Transform Boundary
A consecutive plate boundary is where the tectonic plates meet. There are many types of boundaries, such as convergent, divergent, and transform.

The worst plate boundary is the north american plate with the recorded worst for earthquakes
At a divergent boundary tectonic plates move apart.
A transform boundary.
no divergent boundary
Tectonic plates shifting around while bumping into another tectonic plate. When the plates slide pass each other, it creates a transform boundary which makes earthquakes.

Any area where two or more tectonic plates do not touch each other is a not a tectonic plate boundary.
