Plate tectonics is a process that Withgott and Laposata (2012) say is of extraordinary importance to the planet.

As this process takes place, it drags these large plates of lithosphere along the surface. The movement of these plates is known as plate tectonics (Withgott & Laposata, 2012). Earth’s surface
