A tectonic or lithospheric plate.
This phenomenon is called tectonic plate movement. It occurs when large segments of the Earth's crust, known as tectonic plates, slowly shift and move over time. These movements can result in various geological events such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation.
Earth's magnetic field is not in its crust. It passes through the crust, but it is generated by the differential motion of the inner and outer core. The core is mostly iron and nickel. This creates huge dynamo and generates our magnetosphere.
Pangaea.
Strong shaking movements of the Earth's crust are called earthquakes. They are caused by the sudden release of energy in the Earth's lithosphere due to tectonic plate movements. Earthquakes can result in the shaking and displacement of the ground, sometimes causing damage to buildings and infrastructure.
A fold mountain is the type of mountain involving huge sections of the earth's crust being pushed up into anticlines and synclines. It often occurs when two continental plates collide.folded mountain
TecTonic plates
The huge sections of the Earth's crust that move are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid layer beneath them, known as the asthenosphere, and their movements contribute to processes like earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation.

When a huge piece of crust diverges (pulls apart), the crust becomes fractured and magma spills out on the surface.

A tectonic plate. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere layer of the Earth's mantle and interact with each other at plate boundaries, leading to various geological phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity.

They are Tectonic Plates I think there are 9 of them.
The crust is not a solid shell; it is broken into huge, thick plates that float on the liquid mantle.
miners have been able to dig into the earths crust by big machines and other huge tools and they have only dig ed 2 miles into the earths crust
