In convergent/destructive plate boundaries, two plates collide into each other. They may form mountains, mountain ranges, volcanoes and many other landforms.
In divergent/constructive plate boundaries, two plates move away from each other. They can form mid-ocean ridges, island arcs and many other landforms.
When a small volcano explodes at or in sea the lava cools and forms a hard surface and forms mountains, Plautus .

What are the two ways that the movement of tectonics plates affect the earth?
There are lots of affects:- Mountains Volcanoes Earthquakes Continental drift etc.wowee dum as hell
Why are earthquakes mountains and volcanoes in the same classification?
Earthquakes, mountains, and volcanoes are all related to the movement of tectonic plates in the Earth's crust. Earthquakes occur due to the release of tectonic stress, while mountains are formed by the collision of tectonic plates, pushing crustal rocks upwards. Volcanoes are formed when magma from beneath the Earth's surface is released through openings in the crust, often associated with tectonic plate boundaries.
How earthquakes volcanoes and mountain's formation are related to plate tectonics?
Earthquakes, volcanoes and mountains are formed via plate tectonics. When the large continental plates collide, they either cause temporary earthquakes, or more permanent features such as volcanoes and mountains.
Why does an earthquake zone have earthquakes if no volcanoes are there?
Volcanoes are not the primary cause of earthquakes. Most earthquakes result from the stresses created by tectonic plates moving past or against one another. At transform boundaries there is no mechanism to produce volcanoes, but the movement of the plates will still cause earthquakes. Stresses within a plate can also cause earthquakes.
What energy source causes earthquakes and volcanoes?
Earthquakes and volcanoes are primarily caused by the movement of tectonic plates in the Earth's crust. This movement releases built-up stress in the form of seismic waves for earthquakes and molten rock and volcanic gases for volcanic eruptions. The energy source that drives the movement of tectonic plates is the heat generated by the radioactive decay of elements within the Earth's mantle.
How are earthquakes and volcanoes and mountains are related?
because volcanoes can also be caused by plates

What is most likely the result of the movement of earth's plates?
Earthquakes when pressure between two plates suddenly slip. Thrusting up of mountains, volcanoes resulting from friction melting rock into lava.
What are some of the features of the earth that are caused by plates movement?
mountains and earthquakes
Is there a relationship between movement and distribution of volcanoes and earthquakes?
Volcanoes don't move. Earthquakes move tectonic plates, and are then pronounced "earthquakes". So, no, I'm pretty sure there isn't.

At transform boundaries there is no mechanism to produce volcanoes, but the movement of the plates will still cause earthquakes. Stresses within a plate can also cause earthquakes.
How do the moving plates cause constant changes to the surface of your planet?
they build mountains and volcanoes, and cause earthquakes.
What is likely to occur on the earth's surface where it lies above the edges of crustal plates?
volcanoes,earthquakes,mountains
How are earthquakes and volcanoes related to the theory of the plate tectonics?
They are both caused by movement of tectonic plates.
Which two natural disasters are commonly associated with the movement of tectonic plates?
Earthquakes and volcanoes. Earthquakes may also cause tsunami.
