The process in animals that is stimulated by the movement of Earth's tectonic plates is known as "biogeography." This involves the study of how animals are distributed and how their geographic distribution is influenced by the movement of continents and oceanic plates. Changes in land masses can impact habitat availability, climate, and the migration patterns of species.
The three types of convergent plate boundaries are oceanic-oceanic, oceanic-continental, and continental-continental. Oceanic-oceanic convergence occurs when two oceanic plates collide, resulting in the formation of volcanic island arcs. Oceanic-continental convergence happens when an oceanic plate subducts beneath a continental plate, creating volcanic mountain ranges. Continental-continental convergence involves the collision of two continental plates, leading to the formation of large mountain ranges.
Satellites are used to measure the movement of plate by radiation.
yes...it affects a lot.....
sea-floor spreading
When an oceanic plate converges with a continental plate, the oceanic plate slips under the continental one and into the mantle in a process called subduction. The area will be prone to large earthquakes and tsunamis. A chain of volcanoes will form on the continent.

terranes are attached to the edge of a continent
oceanic crust
Antarctica has moved the least in continental drift due to its location in the South Pole and being surrounded by oceanic crust, which has limited its movement compared to other continents.

Fiji falls under the Australian continent along with other south pacific countries and are sometimes regarded to as Oceanic.
Tuna do not come from ANY continent. Tuna are marine fish.

The Arabian Plate does not carry a continent. It is an oceanic tectonic plate located mainly beneath the Arabian Peninsula in Southwest Asia.
