- Energy flow affecting itself, like in climate systems.
- Plates move apart, creating new crust (e.g., mid-ocean ridges).
- Plates move horizontally past each other.
- Earth's innermost layer, generating heat.

- Underwater mountain range at a divergent boundary.
- Plates collide, forming mountains or subduction zones.
- Movement of thermal energy from warmer to cooler objects.
- Plates slide past each other, causing earthquakes.
- Slow mantle circulation driving plate tectonics.
- Total kinetic energy of particles, related to temperature.
- Volcano chain above a subduction zone.
