Answer 1

Answer:

1. The plates can be thought of like pieces of a cracked shell that rest on the hot, molten rock of Earth's mantle and fit snugly against one another. The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other.

2.Endogenic (or endogenetic) factors are agents supplying energy for actions that are located within the earth. ... Exogenic (or exogenetic) factors are agents supplying energy for actions that are located at or near the earth's surface. Exogenic factors are usually driven by gravity or atmospheric forces.
