The Theory of Plate Tectonics 3.3 notes How plates move  The theory of plate tectonics states that pieces of Earth’s lithosphere are in slow, constant.

Plate Tectonics  Lithosphere – the earth’s crust 1) The Earth’s crust is not a continuous, solid rock layer 2) The crust is broken up into smaller units.

The Theory of Plate Tectonics:. The Lithosphere is broken into separate sections called plates. The plates fit together along cracks in the lithosphere.

Tectonic Plates Large segments of the outer layer of Earth (lithosphere) which drift and float on the asthenosphere.

Plate Tectonics Chapter 4.4. Who is J. Tuzo Wilson and what was his idea? J.Tuzo Wilson proposed that all the lithosphere is broken into separate sections.
