The theory is that the crust is made up of different plates that ride on the magma currents in the mantle, constantly crashing in to each other and creating new landmasses and oceans.
it subducts underneath the crustal plate
Faults and folds just support the idea that there lithospheric plates are in motion because folds appear when the plates move towards each other. The faults appear when the plates drift apart and cause an empty space.
Earthquakes. Pressure in the Earth's core.
it is concept of earths crust is gravitational balance or equilibrium.

The crustal plates are in constant motion, there is no last movement
There is local tectonic activity but the surface appears to be a single crustal plate, with little large-scale horizontal motion of plates as found on the Earth.
The theory of plate tectonics.
Newton got the idea of forces from change in motion, acceleration. Aristotle had the idea no force no motion, Newton recognized inertial motion without force.
The central idea to the study of kinematics is the motion of points without taking into consideration the causes of motion. It is often referred as the geometry of motion.
what is the crustal history on mars?
A force in motion, stays in motion.
There are 14 crustal plates on the earth.
The movement of crustal or lithospheric plates is a part of the theory of plate tectonics.
The movement of crustal or lithospheric plates is a part of the theory of plate tectonics. The geological theory is called plate tectonics.

Worldwide, the mountains are the evidence of crustal plates.
