The Earth's lithosphere consists of tectonic plates made up of huge slabs of rock that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere of the upper mantle. These plates move around, interacting at their boundaries, resulting in geological phenomena like earthquakes and mountain formation.
The lithosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth that is made up of large slabs of rock called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid layer of the mantle beneath them. Movements and interactions between these plates are responsible for phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic activity.
These slabs, known as tectonic plates, interact at plate boundaries leading to various geological phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain formation. The movement of these plates is a result of the convection currents in the semi-fluid asthenosphere below.
What is a prehistoric English site of tall, huge stone slabs? I believe he was asking the name of tall, huge stone slabs located in the UK...the name is Stonehenge

The huge slabs of Earth's lithosphere that rest on the plastic-like and easily molded asthenosphere are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and are responsible for various geological processes, including earthquakes, volcanic activity, and continental drift. Their movement is driven by convection currents in the underlying mantle.
An asteroid has been observed by astronomers to be composed of six massive slabs of materials orbiting in space.
It is called Stonehenge

The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's lithosphere is divided into several large plates that move over the semi-fluid asthenosphere of the mantle. The motion of these plates is primarily driven by convection currents in the mantle.
