The large pieces in the Earth's crust are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and interact with each other, leading to various geological phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
The large pieces of rock that make up the Earth's crust are called tectonic plates. These plates vary in size and shape and float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them. Their movement is responsible for geological activity such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountains.

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.

The earths crust is split into large pieces called plates. When they move they cause a earthquake.
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.
The large landmasses on Earth's crust are called continents. These are the major divisions of land on our planet.
