The uneven hearing of the asthenosphere/mantle causes convection currents. The currents move the material in the mantle around and therefore make the plates move.

The reason the earth's tectonic plates are able to move is that they are affected by currents in the Earth's mantle.

Tectonic plates:

  • Are parts of the Earth's crust
  • Float on top of the Earth's mantle

As a result of the mantle being heated, convection currents form which cause movement in the mantle. The tectonic plates are then forced to move around as a result of this movement.

In conclusion, the earth's tectonic plates move as a result of movement in the Earth's mantle.
