Question

9. According to the 'Theory of Plate Tectonics,' what have been the effects of the movement of the plates?
(a) Change in position and size of continents
(b) Formation of ocean basins
(c) Evolution of the present landforms and relief of India
(d) All of the above​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Plate motions cause mountains to rise where plates push together, or converge, and continents to fracture and oceans to form where plates pull apart, or diverge. The continents are embedded in the plates and drift passively with them, which over millions of years results in significant changes in Earth's geography.
