It is broken into tectonic plates. Two types are the Continental Crust and the Oceanic Crust.
The lithosphere is broken into about 100 separate sections called tectonic or crustal plates. They are divided by faults which are very much like cracks between plates. These plates float on top of the asthenosphere. A rift valley is a deep valley that forms where two plates move apart.
Tectonic Plates
tectonic plates
The lithosphere is broken into separate sections called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and move around due to the forces generated by the Earth's internal heat. The movement of these plates leads to processes such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains.
That would be the lithosphere. This is broken into sections known as lithospheric (or tectonic) plates.
Earths lithosphere is made up of upper mantle. The earths lithosphere is broken into separate sections and it is called as tectonic plates or plate tectonics.
It is called plates.
plate tectonics
The lithosphere is made up of the "upper mantle" and earth's crust.The lithosphere is broken into separate sections called plate tectonics or tectonic plates.
Plate tectonics
tectonic plates or you could say plate tectonics
The Earth's lithosphere is broken into separate sections called plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere and move due to the heat-driven convection currents below them.
