The theory of plate tectonics was proposed by Alfred Wegener, the theory is that the lithospheric plates move by convection currents from the mantle, this is called continental drift
The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's lithosphere (the solid outer layer) is divided into several large plates that move relative to each other. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere underneath. Plate boundaries are where the plates interact, resulting in processes like earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges. This theory helps explain the distribution of continents, the occurrence of earthquakes and volcanoes, and the formation of oceanic trenches and mountains.

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

Tectonic Plates* :DD
In the late 1800's ... but nobody believed it for 100 years.
There are four types of plate tectonics, namely major plates, minor plates, ancient plates and plates within orogens.
They are the same thing.
They are the same thing.
