the techtonic plates are made of various types of rock. mostly Granite/ igneous rock.
Moving of tectonic plates causes earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges when plates collide or pull apart. These movements also contribute to the creation of ocean basins and continents over long periods of time.
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.
As Earth's mantle drags on the bottom of tectonic plates, it creates stress and friction that can cause the plates to move. This movement can result in various tectonic activities such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountain ranges as the plates interact with each other.
You are part of the rigid outer shell of the Earth known as the lithosphere. The lithosphere floats and moves on the semi-fluid layer beneath it called the asthenosphere due to plate tectonics. This movement of the lithospheric plates atop the asthenosphere is responsible for phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity.
The aesthenosphere, which is located in the top part of the Earth's mantle is the layer lying underneath the tectonic plates. Collective movement in these plates cause a gradual rise in the aesthenosphere, thereby resulting to land elevation.
massive rocks
Techtonic plates
when the techtonic plates move, they can make an earthquake, that then may trigger techtonic plates to move and begin waves that become a tsunami
Divergent
the techtonic plates moving, earthquakes mainly happen on the crakes in the techtonic plates like new zealand has quite a few because they are on a crack.
land is on plates plates move so does land techtonic plates
The vibration of the techtonic plates. :)
tension and compression:)
there are many
mostly on techtonic plates by volcanos
