Plate Tectonics, Solar System Origin, and Life’s Genesis

Plate Tectonics

Continental drift and seafloor spreading unite in a more complete theory known as plate tectonics. Under this theory, the rigid outer layer of the Earth is over a weaker region called the asthenosphere. The lithosphere is divided into several pieces called plates that are moving and continually changing in shape and size. The plates move and deform along their edges.

When the plates separate, mantle material rises, creating new ocean floor. When the plates collide, mountain ranges
