Plate tectonics on earth are vigorous and ongoing. Plate tectonics on Mars are a matter of debate. Long thought to be only in Mars distant past, there is a shift in opinion on the question of plate tectonics on Mars, and some (not all) scientists now believe that there is mild and sporadic plate tectonics happening on Mars to this day. But all agree that if that is the case, it is a fraction of those happening on earth.
Earthquakes, volcanoes, canyons, mid-ocean ridges, mountain ranges and so on and the results of plate tectonics.
some features caused by plate tectonics would be folded and faulted mountain chains. subduction zones are also some important features caused by plate tectonics. the oceanic crust goes underneath the continental crust creating a subduction zone at the plate boundaries.parvaiz mansoori
We don't answer questions from printed/copyrighted materials.
some charactristics for plate tectonics are that they are made up of lithospheric materials.

Plate tectonics helps us to explain continental drift.

one plate tectonic bumped into another one and said 'sorry, my fault'
The biggest budget problems in California seem to be the same ones the rest of the nation is facing. Some of the problems include the energy crisis, the fall of the revenue surge back in '99-00, and the stock market crash.
Geophysicists, Seismologists, Geomorphologists and Palaeontologists are some examples of scientists who's work involves or is affected by the theory of plate tectonics.
