how are continents and tectonic pates related

Sagot :

The continents are above the tectonic plates. Continents don't move; the tectonic plates do. So when they say the continents are moving, it's the tectonic plates shifting them around. Tectonic plates are also the cause of earthquakes. Whenever they shift, an earthquake occurs. There are over 600,000 earthquakes a year we can't feel, not including the ones we can feel.
