Tectonic plates float on the mantle because they are less dense
Tectonic plates float on the mantle because they are less dense
The tectonic plates, part of the lithosphere, move around and float on the top of the asthenosphere.
Tectonic plates float on an underlying molten layer.
The crustal plates (both continental and oceanic) float on the denser mantle.
