Answer: The theory states that the earth's crust is divided into massive slabs known as tectonic plates.

Explanation:

These plates move on the mantle which is a layer made of magma, which consists of semisolid rocks.The heat from earth's core causes convection currents much like in a beaker full of water.But, here the force developed by the magma is so great that it slowly moves the plates like boats on sea over millions of years.

Answer: The theory of tectonic plates says that the Earth's outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that are covering this entire world.
