Fault lines or plate boundaries.
The lithosphere is broken into separate sections called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and move around due to the forces generated by the Earth's internal heat. The movement of these plates leads to processes such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountains.
They are called tectonic or lithospheric plates.
The lithosphere is broken into about 100 separate sections called tectonic or crustal plates. They are divided by faults which are very much like cracks between plates. These plates float on top of the asthenosphere. A rift valley is a deep valley that forms where two plates move apart.
Because of the tectonic plates. Some countries are on the edge of tectonic plates.
The lithosphere is broken up into sections called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below and interact with one another at plate boundaries, where most earthquakes and volcanic activity occur.

tectonic plates or you could say plate tectonics
When two tectonic plates separate, it is called seafloor spreading. This process occurs at mid-ocean ridges where new oceanic crust is formed as magma rises from below the Earth's surface and solidifies.

When the tectonic plates separate.
a divergent boundary
causes of earthquake
The places between plates moving together are called convergent boundaries. These boundaries are characterized by plates colliding and often resulting in tectonic activity such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
Tectonic plates are also "Continental Crust" and "Oceanic Crust". Also lithospheric plates.
