How have crustal plates moved over time?
Molten magma from the mantle rises at the top oceanic ridge, cools and solidifies, continually forming a crustal plate. Hundreds to thousands of miles from the ridge the plate moves downward into the mantle at the contact with another plate and melts. The continuous process resembling a large "conveyor belt" moves the crustal plate a few centimeters each year.

How does the earth's plates move on top of the crust?
The Earth's tectonic plates do not move on top of the crust, they are the crust. The crust is made out of plates. The plates float on top of the mantle, which is made of molten rock, called magma. The plates move because of currents in the magma.
What state move mean describes earths plates?

Does the sun makes Earth's plates move past each other?
No. The plates move due to forces within earth, likely a combination of mantle convection, and the uneven distribution of weight on the plates.

What do geologists think causes earths plates to move?
The movement of the Earth's plates is known as plate tectonics. Geologists think the plates move due to a build up of extreme heat in the Earth's crust.
Where do earth's plates move around?
at divergent boundaries
Which of earth's layers causes plates to move?
