Answer 2

The theory of plate tectonics explains large scale motion of the earth's lithosphere. Tectonic plates are rigid slabs of the earth's lithosphere (crust and upper mantle) in which float and move with the continents they carry.

Answer 3

The Earth's lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below. There are several major plates, such as the Pacific Plate and the Eurasian Plate, which interact at plate boundaries, leading to various geologic activities like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. The movement of these plates is responsible for shaping the Earth's surface over millions of years.
