Earth Science : Plate Tectonics

The video tutorial explores Earth's structure, focusing on its four layers: the inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust. It explains plate tectonics, describing how Earth's plates move, collide, and form mountains like the Himalayas. The video also covers volcano formation, detailing how colliding plates with different densities can lead to volcanic activity. Additionally, it discusses alternative volcanic formation through hotspots and weak crust areas, resulting in new landmasses or islands.
