The theory of plate tectonics states that the plates of the earth move due to convection in the mantle. This is what brings continents together and apart.
Plate Tectonics states that Earth's crust and the outermost part of the mantle are mechanically connected to each other. This layer is broken into several plates that move about Earth's surface. As they move about, they are constantly interacting with each other along their boundaries.
It is the state of Earth's Crust and Upper Mantle which together form the Lithosphere is broken into large plate and several small ones. These plate is moving around, and their movement causes the changes of Earth's crust.

What is the theory that the lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that move around?

What Is the theory that the earths lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere?
A theory that says the lithosphere is divided into plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere is called '' plate tectonics''

Nothing, it's a theory, like evolution!
How does plate tectonic theory explains the distribution of mineral resources?
yes.

Who is credited with the plate tectonic theory?
The plate tectonic theory was primarily developed by Alfred Wegener in the early 20th century. He proposed the idea of continental drift, which later laid the foundation for our modern understanding of plate tectonics.

Fissures formation by plate tectonics theory?
Plate tectonics is the theory used to explain the structure of the Earth's various formations and plate boundaries between the major tectonic plates.
