Answer:

The outer shell of the Earth is a series of large blocks called the tectonic plates. Though the surface of the Earth appears to be still, it is actually moving all the time. And, it is this movement of these plates that is responsible for earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountains on the Earth’s surface.
