What are two kind of crust that a tectonic plate may contain?
Tectonic plates can have either continental crust, which is thicker and less dense, or oceanic crust, which is thinner and more dense. The type of crust influences the movement and behavior of the tectonic plates at plate boundaries.
What are 2 kinds of crust that a tectonic plate may contain?
Tectonic plates can have either continental crust, which is thicker and less dense, or oceanic crust, which is thinner and denser. These two types of crust differ in composition, thickness, and density, and interact with each other at plate boundaries.

Which tectonic plate is primarily comprised of seafloor crust?
The tectonic plate primarily comprised of seafloor crust is the Pacific Plate. It is one of the largest tectonic plates and is mostly covered by oceanic crust formed at mid-ocean ridges.
How many tectonic plates are composed of only continental crust?
Some geologists believe there are no tectonic plates composed solely of continental crust, as plates typically consist of both continental and oceanic crust. The concept of a plate composed entirely of continental crust is not widely accepted in the field of plate tectonics.
How many tectonic plates in oceanic crust?
There are 9 major tectonic plates in the Earth\'s oceanic crust, six of which receive the names of the continents they hold.
What 3 tectonic plates contain mostly SIMA?
The three tectonic plates that contain mostly SIMA (silicate and magnesium-rich rock) are the Pacific Plate, the Philippine Sea Plate, and the Juan de Fuca Plate. These plates are characterized by their oceanic crust composition, which is primarily made up of SIMA.
