The movement of the tectonic plates results in the formation of earthquakes, mountain formations and volcanos. Plate movements are thought to be caused by the movement of convection currents of liquid and semi liquid magma in the mantle. The magma is what forms volcanos

plate tectonic movements cause earthquakes because the sliding movment causes a buildup of pressure eventually making a sudden release of energy causing an earthquake
