Which layer of the earth is broken into seprate sections called plates?
The layer of the Earth that is broken into separate sections called plates is the lithosphere. These plates move due to the flow of the underlying asthenosphere, causing phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity at plate boundaries.
Which layer of the earth contains the tectonic plates?
