What is the behavior of the crustal plates in relation to the asthenosphere?
Crustal (or lithospheric) plates are pulled or pushed by the movement of heated rock in the asthenosphere.
How have crustal plates moved over time?
Molten magma from the mantle rises at the top oceanic ridge, cools and solidifies, continually forming a crustal plate. Hundreds to thousands of miles from the ridge the plate moves downward into the mantle at the contact with another plate and melts. The continuous process resembling a large "conveyor belt" moves the crustal plate a few centimeters each year.
