Earths lithosphere is made of huge pieces of solid rock is called ..?
Lithospheric plates.
Plates beneath the earths crust are located where?
The Earth's crust is made of plates which float on the Earth's mantle. They are located on the entire planetary surface. Even oceans lie on top of plates.
What are the earths plates made of?
parts of the crust and upper mantle

The Earth's crust is made of plates which float on the Earth's mantle. They are located on the entire planetary surface. Even oceans lie on top of plates.
What is the force that probably propels the movement of the earths rock plates?
The earth is made up of multiple tectonic plates. These plates are propelled by convection in the mantle layer below the crust (lithosphere)
