Plate tectonics shape Earth's surface by moving large sections of the lithosphere, leading to the creation of mountains, earthquakes, and volcanoes through interactions at convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.This process is driven by mantle convection, ridge push, and slab pull, and results in significant geological features like the Himalayas, the Pacific Ring of Fire, and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
