Plate movement depends on the type of the plate boundaries ranging in from divergent to transform category.
Rupture of the volcanoes is one of the most important events occurring due to the movement.
When continental plate collides, the crust is quite thick; therefore a giant crumpled zone is created leading to the formation of folds.

"Some of the many geological processes which are associated with the plate movement on the Earth are listed below:
- Eruption of Volcanoes
- Spreading of ocean basins
- Formation of oceanic crust
- Continental drifting
- Formation of fault-block mountains
- Formation of dip or slip faults
- Transgression of oceans and regression of oceans
- Earthquakes
- Formation of crumps zone
- Stretching Earth crust"
