How many minor tectonic plates are there on Earth?
There are around 15-20 minor tectonic plates on Earth, in addition to the major plates that comprise the Earth's lithosphere. These minor plates are smaller in size compared to the major plates and play a role in the movement and dynamics of tectonic activity.

Is how many plates is the crust divided into?
The Earth's crust is divided into several large tectonic plates, with around 7 major plates and several smaller ones. These plates float on the semi-fluid upper mantle and interact at their boundaries, where most of the Earth's seismic activity occurs.
How many minor plates in the earth's crust?
There are around 15 minor tectonic plates in the Earth's crust, in addition to the major plates. These minor plates contribute to the overall movement and interaction of Earth's tectonic plates.
