The earth is broken into fourteen plates: Pacific, Juan de Fuca, North American, Cocos, Caribbean, Nazca, Scotia, South American, Antarctic, African, Arabian, Eurasian, Australian-Indian, and Philippine. These are considered the main plates and are larger than minor plates.
Lithospheric plates.
The movement of Earth's plates can create geological features like mountains and volcanoes through processes such as subduction and continental collision. It can also lead to earthquakes when plates shift along faults in the Earth's crust.
Lower mantle is the surface on which the lithospheric plates move around earths surface.
The lithosphere is the part of the Earth that contains tectonic plates. These plates are divided pieces of the lithosphere that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them.
The Earth's surface is broken into large pieces called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere layer beneath them and interact at plate boundaries, where geological phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur.
Techtonic plates
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
Tectonic Plates.
The worlds tectonic plates slide on the earths mantle.
there are 8 plates
20.
Well, when earths plates move away from each other that's when it happens but move well then NO!
plate tectonics are moving plates under the earths surface
No the tectonic plates are on top of the crust.
PLATE TECTONICS is the study of the movement of the earths continental plates
