Answer 2

Tectonic plates are the continental and oceanic plates of Earth's crust and upper mantle.

• The tectonic plates are constantly in motion. They collide with each other or move away from each other giving rise to different types of boundaries.
• The three major types are convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.
• The movement of these plates results in the formation of mountains, faults, and volcanoes.
• It is believed that earlier the Earth was a single landmass and due to continental drift, different continents and oceans were formed.
