Misconception: The edge of a continent is the same thing as a plate boundary. There is a natural sensibility to Geologyâs Theory of Plate Tectonics. Obviously, continents have moved, because of the puzzle-like fit of the continent edges across the Atlantic Ocean.
Tectonic plates are pieces of Earth's crust and uppermost mantle, together referred to as the lithosphere. The plates are around 100 km (62 mi) thick and consist of two principal types of material: oceanic crust (also called sima from silicon and magnesium) and continental crust (sial from silicon and aluminium).hese seven plates comprise the bulk of the continents and the Pacific Ocean. For purposes of this list, a major plate is any plate with an area greater than 10 million km 2. 1  Pacific Plate â 103,300,000 km 2. 2  North American Plate â 75,900,000 km 2.
