Causes of Plate Tectonics Convection Currents Describe convection currents Diagram the Earth’s mantle convection currents. Make sure to label the: inner core, outer core, the asthenosphere, lithosphere, and the mantle.
Theory of Plate Tectonics Plate Boundaries Causes of Plate Tectonics Plate Tectonics What is Plate Tectonics The Earth’s crust and upper mantle are broken into sections called plates Plates move around on top of the mantle like rafts What is the Lithosphere? The crust and part of the upper ma...

Plate tectonics is a theory in geology. This theory primarily explains the proof of the large movements of the earth’s lithosphere. The lithosphere is the outermost layer of solid rock of a planet. The lithosphere consists of the uppermost mantle and the crust. These two are joined together ...
