The Earth is constantly moving. The earth is not stable because‚ the plates are all ways moving.There is different boundaries for the plates in the earth there is convergent‚ Divergent‚ and transform boundaries. The transform boundaries rub together and causes enough friction that when the potential energy lets loose it creates an earthquake. convergent boundaries we’ll come together that can help make mountains because when one plate is more dense than the other plate‚ the more dense plate will
