Discover what the theory for plate tectonics is, how Earth's plates move at boundaries like divergent and convergent zones, and evidence from fossils, GPS, and earthquakes. Learn why it matters for hazards and resources, with plain explanations and real-world examples.
Discover what divergent boundaries form: mid-ocean ridges, rift valleys, volcanic fields and new ocean basins. Explore real-world examples like Iceland and the East African Rift with visitor guides.
Learn what defines a subcontinent with real-world examples like the Indian subcontinent. Understand tectonic plates, geographic isolation, cultural uniqueness, and why this matters for travel and climate.
