Plate tectonics is the scientific theory that Earth's surface is broken up into huge, slow-moving slabs called tectonic plates. The movement of these plates drives many geologic processes including most earthquakes and volcanoes. Plate boundaries are the areas where two tectonic plates meet.

What is the most geologically active region on earth?
Boundaries between plate tectonics
Fissures formation by plate tectonics theory?
Plate tectonics is the theory used to explain the structure of the Earth's various formations and plate boundaries between the major tectonic plates.
When did plate tectonics stop?
As far as the Earth is concerned - plate tectonics has not stopped; the plates are still in motion - which is why we get earthquakes and volcanic eruptions along the plate boundaries.

The borders, or cracks, between tectonic plates are called ________.?
The cracks between the plates of the lithosphere are called plate boundaries. They are the cause of plate tectonics and many natural disasters.
What is the type of tectonic plate boundary that forms from a collision between two tectonics plates?
Convergent boundaries occur at subduction zones, the point where one plate slides under another plate.
