The Earth's lithosphere, which consists of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle, contains tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them. The movement of these plates is responsible for various geological activities, including earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountains.
