Answer:
Theory of Plate tectonics: <em>states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere</em>
Lithosphere<em>:</em><em> the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle.
</em>
Convection currents: <em>occur when a heated fluid expands, becoming less dense, and rises</em>
Seafloor spreading:<em> the formation of new areas of oceanic crust, which occurs through the upwelling of magma at mid-ocean ridges and its subsequent outward movement on either side.</em>
Paleomagnetic:<em> is the study of the record of the Earth's magnetic field in rocks, sediment, or archeological materials.</em>
Divergent boundary: <em>occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. </em>
Convergent boundary:<em> is an area on Earth where two or more lithospheric plates collide.</em>
Rift valley:<em> A rift valley is a linear-shaped lowland between several highlands or mountain ranges created by the action of a geologic rift or fault. </em>
Transform fault boundary: <em>A transform fault or transform boundary is a fault along a plate boundary where the motion is predominantly horizontal. </em>
Subduction zone:<em> is a region of the Earth's crust where tectonic plates meet. </em>
Trench: <em>Trenches are long, narrow depressions on the seafloor that form at the boundary of tectonic plates where one plate is pushed, or subducts, beneath another.</em>
Continental-oceanic convergence: <em>When two plates come towards each other they create a convergent plate boundary. The plates can meet where both have oceanic crust or both have continental crust, or they can meet where one has oceanic and one has continental</em>.
Continental-continental convergence: <em>So when two continental plates collide, they just smash together. When two plates of continental crust collide, the material pushes upward. This forms a high mountain range. The remnants of subducted oceanic crust remain beneath the continental convergence zone.</em>
