The mantle. Earth's layers are core, outer core, mantle, lithosphere, and crust.
It is found in earth's rock layers
Most geologic activity on Earth takes place along tectonic plate boundaries, where plates move and interact, leading to events like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain building.
Controlling the earth's tides.
Geologic forces are natural processes that shape the Earth's surface over long periods of time. These forces include tectonic plate movements, volcanic activity, erosion, and sedimentation. They are responsible for creating landscapes, mountains, valleys, and other features on Earth.
Plate tectonics is the scientific theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several large, rigid plates that move and interact with each other at the boundaries. These plate movements are responsible for various geologic phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges.
Earth does have craters, but unlike on the moon, craters are quickly hidden or destroyed by erosion, sedimentation, and geologic activity.

The movement of the mantle is responsible for processes such as plate tectonics, which shape the Earth's surface by causing earthquakes, volcanoes, and the formation of mountains. It also plays a critical role in the global heat flow and the cycling of materials within the Earth's interior, influencing geologic activity and the Earth's overall structure and dynamics.
