  • The movement of these tectonic plates is likely caused by convection currents in the molten rock in Earth's mantle below the crust.
  • Earthquakes and volcanoes are the short-term results of this tectonic movement.
  • The long-term result of plate tectonics is the movement of entire continents over millions of years.

Tectonic plates are able to move because the Earth's lithosphere has greater mechanical strength than the underlying asthenosphere. Lateral density variations in the mantle result in convection; that is, the slow creeping motion of Earth's solid mantle.
