Hey, sorry if this was not the answer you were seeking but your phrasing of the question was a little confusing. Anyway all tectonic plates are connected and there is a, shall we say 'equilibrium' between them as the rate of subduction of one plate is equal to the rate of growth of another, meaning there is always the same surface area of the earth. Anyway hope that helps.
What else can I help you with?
What are the countries in the tectonic plate?
all countries are on tectonic plates because everything on the surface of the earth is on tectonic plates. be more specific with your questions.
Why are most of the earthquakes and volcanoes located at the border of the tectonic plates?
Beacause plates, at tectonic, boundaries shift against each other.
What consequences does the tectonic plates have?
The tectonic plates are constantly moving around and if (or even when) they hit each other they cause earth quakes and even volcanoes.
Earthquakes occur mainly allong the edges of?
Tectonic plates and fault lines created by the movement of tectonic plates.
Who named the tectonic plates tectonic and why?
harry hess named the tectonic plates but I'm not sure why =/
What is the difference between Continental plates and Tectonic plates?
Continental plates are tectonic plates. They are tectonic plates upon which continents rest, and they move as do all tectonic plates. Basically, there is no difference, other than the fact that oceanic plates are another type of tectonic plate.
What are the other tectonic plates besides the 7 largest tectonic plates?
The link has the information you asked for.
Where do earthquakes form and where they are find?
Anywhere there are tectonic plates, and when two tectonic plates hit each other
How many tectonic plates do we have?
there are 7 huge plates but dozens of smaller plates
What do tectonic plates move?
Tectonic Plates move by trying to push past each other and by trying to slide past each other.
Do all the tectonic plates move in the same direction?
No, tectonic plates move in different directions. Some plates move towards each other (convergent boundaries), some move away from each other (divergent boundaries), and others slide past each other horizontally (transform boundaries).
What are the countries in the tectonic plate?
all countries are on tectonic plates because everything on the surface of the earth is on tectonic plates. be more specific with your questions.
What does the ground near tectonic plates do in order for earthquakes to occur?
because the plates are pushing on each other and then release all the of it was released
What events occur when the tectonic plates move and grind against each other?
When tectonic plates move and grind against each other, this is an earthquake. If the moving of tectonic plates were to occur beneath the ocean's surface, the result would be a tsunami.
Why are most of the earthquakes and volcanoes located at the border of the tectonic plates?
Beacause plates, at tectonic, boundaries shift against each other.
What caused the wobble?
if you are talking about earthquakes then its all about tectonic plates. The force of two plates get to much so one of the plates slide under the other forming an earthquake.
What layer moves at tectonic plates?
The lithosphere is the layer that moves with the tectonic plates. The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the upper part of the mantle, and it is broken into tectonic plates that move and interact with each other.
