The surface of the Earth is composed of large, interlocking pieces known as tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and are constantly moving, albeit very slowly. Their interactions at plate boundaries can lead to geological events such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountains. The movement and interaction of these plates are fundamental to the Earth's geological processes.
