it influences the layout of the land, as it it's always changing, once people could walk from Asia to America, now this is only possible by air or boat. Also near the tectonic boundary's volcanoes form and earthquakes happen. So like in Hawaii's case it was formed by an underwater volcano over time from the tectonic plates caused the land to form into the Hawaii we know today.
