These are known as tectonic plates.
It is called plates.
Tectonic platea.
The large sections of lithosphere that float on the asthenosphere are called tectonic plates. These plates are rigid sections of Earth's lithosphere that move and interact with each other at plate boundaries, causing geological phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
tectonic plates
The lithosphere is made up of the "upper mantle" and earth's crust.The lithosphere is broken into separate sections called plate tectonics or tectonic plates.
plate tectionics theory......................:-)
Earths lithosphere is made up of upper mantle. The earths lithosphere is broken into separate sections and it is called as tectonic plates or plate tectonics.
That would be the lithosphere. This is broken into sections known as lithospheric (or tectonic) plates.
The upper mantle is divided into two main sections: the lithosphere and the asthenosphere. The lithosphere is rigid and includes the crust, while the asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer beneath the lithosphere where convection currents occur.
Those sections are called tectonic plates. They are large pieces of the Earth's lithosphere that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below, and their movement and interactions are responsible for many geological phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity.
Plate tectonics
tectonic plates or you could say plate tectonics
