  1. the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.

  3. violent shaking of the earth
  4. the gradual movement of the continents across the earth's surface through geological time

  6. the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle
  7. Plate tectonics is a scientific theory that describes the large-scale motion of Earth's lithosphere
  8. In plate tectonics, a divergent boundary or divergent plate boundary is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other within continents initially produce rifts which produce rift valleys
  9. the sideways and downward movement of the edge of a plate of the earth's crust into the mantle beneath another plate.
