Tectonic plates are parts (pieces) of the outermost layer of Earth: the Crust. (the outermost part of the mantle is also often included in the plates). This means that the land in the middle of the plates is relatively stable while the borders of the plates can be in movement - after all this is where two pieces meet. Plate borders are where the vocanoes and Earthquakes often take place.
<span>I'm not sure I
completely understand what the question is asking for. When I look at
the plates, it looks like they all fit together like a giant puzzle.
They separated due to tectonic plates shifting over hundreds of years.
This was based on the theory that there was a supercontinent (one giant
landmass). I'm not sure how much this helps, but I hope it does. Good
luck!!

Precise knowledge of location, estimates of size, and general sense of connection between places.
They are the maps in our head, so when you think of a neighborhood or states, you can think of where they are positioned and how to get there
they help navigate areas like the kitchen, states, towns, countries and so on
