The difference of tectonic plates and crustal plates?
There is no difference in the common usage of these terms.
What are the large thin plates that move relative to one another on the outer surface of earth called?
They are called tectonic or lithospheric plates.
The Earth's tectonic plates are in constant motion due to several factors Temperature and density differences in the plates cause push and pull forces that move the plates?
The volcanic activey under the crust causes the tectonic plates to move
How did Brasstown Bald form?
It formed by 2 tectonic plates with the same density pushing together.
The lithosphere is broken up into sections called?
Tectonic plates

I am part of lithosphere but you move around on top of the asthenosphere?
The answer is Tectonic Plates
What is the difference between Continental plates and Tectonic plates?
Continental plates are tectonic plates. They are tectonic plates upon which continents rest, and they move as do all tectonic plates. Basically, there is no difference, other than the fact that oceanic plates are another type of tectonic plate.
The Earth's tectonic plates are in constant motion due to several factors. Temperature and density differences in the plates cause push and pull forces that move the plates.?
mantle convection
What is the difference between a tectonic hazard and a tectonic event?
a tectonic hazard is a disaster caused by the moving of tectonic plates.....anda tectonic activity is the moving of tectonic plates........
What causes friction on tectonic plates?
the movement of tectonic plates
Earthquakes occur mainly allong the edges of?
Tectonic plates and fault lines created by the movement of tectonic plates.
