The idea that Earth's crust and rigid upper mantle are broken into enormous slabs called plates is known as?
That is plate tectonics. These slabs are constantly moving generating earth quakes.

How does the theory of plate tectonics differ from Wegener's idea of continental drift?
Wegener's idea of continental drift suggested thatcontinents moved, but it did not explain many otherparts of Earth's crust. Today scientists use the theoryof plate tectonics to explain why Earth's features appearas they do.According to the theory of plate tectonics, Earth's lithosphere is broken into about 20 moving plates. The continents and the ocean floor make up the surfaces of these moving plates.
