Landforms formed on the earth's surface as a result of tectonic plates movements are called primary or secondary landforms.
Tectonic Plate Movements:
- Tectonic plates are formed of Earth's crust and the upper mantle.
- These plates (both oceanic and continental) are subjected to constant movement.
- These plates may move away from each other or may collide with each other forming different landforms.
Primary Landforms:
- A primary landform like a plateau is the one that is formed due to tectonic movements and has not been subjected to changes by activities like soil erosion.
Secondary Landforms:
- Secondary landforms are primary landforms that have been subjected to changes over time.
- Soil erosion and weathering due to air currents shape the primary landforms.
