contients
The large landmasses that geographers identify as the seven continents are: Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Europe, North America, Australia, and South America.
The large pieces of Earth's crust that move over the asthenosphere are called tectonic plates. These plates are responsible for the movement of continents and the occurrence of geological events such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
A large segment of the Earth's crust is composed of continental crust, which is generally thicker and less dense compared to oceanic crust. Continental crust comprises a variety of rock types, including granite, and is essential for supporting landmasses and hosting diverse geological features.

The crust
The earths crust is split into large pieces called plates. When they move they cause a earthquake.

Large chunks of Earth's crust are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid layer of the mantle and are responsible for movements like earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain building.
