What makes the tectonic plates move?
Solid
mountains are formed
Heat from inside the earth
along the borders of the tectonic plates as they move into one another. (The plates rub together)
core, mantle, and crust
fossils of reptiles and seed fern found on different continents
Plates collide causing cracks or holes where magma and gases push up from deep inside the Earth.
The compass always points north
