The movement of tectonic plates is driven byA)high pressure within the Earth.
b.the cooling of the lithosphere.
c.convection cells within the mantle.
d.the fluid movement of the outer core.Eliminate
For much of the last quarter century, the leading theory of the driving force behind tectonic plate motions envisaged large scale convection currents in the upper mantle, which can be transmitted through the asthenosphere. So letter C. is the Answer.
