⚫the shaking or colliding of these tectonic plates causes earthquakes and volcanoes.

$\huge \pink {\boxed {\boxed {\mathbb {EXPLAINATION}}}}$

=> Tectonic Plates are the plates on which the continents stands.

=> There are 7 major tectonic plates and there are many minor tectonic plates also.

=> The tectonic plates are the large pieces of rock under the earths surface .

=> that are constantly moving and responsible for causing earthquakes and volcanic eruption.

=> Tectonic plates refer to the small bit of layers of earth's crust and topmost layer of mantle.

=> These plates are main cause of mountain formation, volcanoes and tsunamis.

=> A tectonic plate is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere.
