Ever wonder what's beneath our feet?✨ Tectonic plates are massive slabs of Earth's lithosphere that move and interact, shaping our planet's surface. ❗ They create mountains, cause earthquakes, and form volcanoes. It's like a giant jigsaw puzzle under us! 🧩✨ Watch this reel to know "what are tectonic plates"✅ #EarthScience #TectonicPlates #Geology #Nature'sPuzzle #LearnSomethingNew #onlineschool #internationalschoolling #studentlife #onlinestudent #studentfirst #world #education #academics #drea

These animations illustrate several key elements of plate tectonics and show examples of how Earth's tectonic plates have moved over time. Watch Pangea split apart and form the modern continents, see mountains form in western North America and watch India collide with Asia. Animations created by Christopher R. Scotese, PALEOMAP Project/Northwestern University, and Ben A. van der Pluijm, University of Michigan. Read more about plate tectonics here: https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/
