The pieces of Earth's lithosphere are called tectonic plates. These rigid segments float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and move due to convection currents in the mantle. The interactions between these plates can lead to geological events such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains.

The theory describes large scale movements of earths lithosphere is called what?
Plate tectonics
What are the pieces of lithosphere called?
The pieces of lithosphere are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere underneath and are responsible for the movement and interactions that shape the Earth's surface through processes like plate tectonics.
What is divided into pieces called tetonic plates?
The Earth's lithosphere is divided into large pieces called tectonic plates. These plates can move and interact with each other along their boundaries, resulting in various geological phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

Earths Litosphere Is Broken Into Separate Sections Called?
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.
What is earths solid outer layer called?

What lithosphere is divided into pieces called?
tectonic plates
What are the large pieces of the lithosphere called?
The large pieces of the lithosphere are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and interact with each other at plate boundaries, leading to phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain formation.
