I would make a block of layers of multi-colored play-dough and then use a knife to cut it in half at a diagonal (for the fault line). then prop one half upward with another layer of dough so you can see where one plate has moved downward.

the different climates and clouds can make another plate denser then another.

Do tectonic plates make caves?
Caves are formed in many ways but mostly by chemical weathering of the surface rock. Tectonic plates on the other hand are huge slabs of rock that form the Earth's crust. Caves are not formed by tectonic plates, think of caves as tiny boreholes in the very surface of a tectonic plate. I agree
