By: Alberto Martinez Gutierrez Plate tectonic is a theory that describe the motion of the earth lithosphere or earth’s crust. The man who came up with this theory was Alfred wegener. Convergent boundaries- is when plates clash and one is forced underneath the other, this can cause earthquakes on the earth’s surface. Divergent boundaries- are plates that are pulled apart and move in opposite direction, this causes lava to rise out from the mantle and over a long period of time create islands. Transform faults/boundaries- are plates that slide past one another to their shared boundaries.
