Answer:
Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. The movement of these tectonic plates is likely caused by convection currents in the molten rock in Earth's mantle below the crust... This slowly changed Earth's surface over time by merging, or separating, continents.
Volcanoes and ridges are landforms that are created by the movement of tectonic plates.
