Answer:

A tectonic plate (also called lithospheric plate) is a massive, irregularly shaped slab of solid rock, generally composed of both continental and oceanic lithosphere.Plate tectonics move because they are carried along by convection currents in the upper mantle of the planet (the mantle is a slowly flowing layer of rock just below Earth's crust). Hot rock just below the surface rises and when it cools and gets heavy, it sinks again.

The carbondioxide enters the leaves and combine with water produces glucose and oxygen. Glucose is stored in different parts of plant whereas some oxygen is used by the plant and the remaining oxygen is releases in the atmosphere while on the other hand, in cellular respiration, glucose is broken down to produce energy in the form of ATP, carbondioxide gas and water.
