∙ 9y agoDiastrophism involves the movements of the earth's tectonic plates. Many theories about what causes these movements include pressure via the heat of convection currents and magma flow, while real, measurable causes involve things like meteor impacts or erosion from landslides.

Vulcanism has a different proximate cause. The interior of the Earth is very hot, and a few tens of km under the surface is a layer of molten magma - materials which have a lower melting point.
These hot spots can break through weak spots of the surface, and cause volcanoes.
Additionally, where one plate subducts below another, this may be melted from the interior heat, and this type of action will form a volcanic chain, such as that around the Pacific.

∙ 11y agoin 1912,Alfred Wegener,a german meteorologist,theorized that there wes once a supercontinent,which he called PANGAEA (meaning "all land"). Forces acting on the crust caused Pangaea to break into seperate crustal plates which drifted to their present position.
Wegener noted that the edges of south america and Africa fit tigether (like a jigsaw puzzle).fossil evidence and rock structures support his idea of a supercontinent.
