The video explains that everything around us, including the ground, is constantly moving. The Earth's crust is made up of plates that move slowly, causing earthquakes when they interact at faults. Pressure builds up when plates get stuck, leading to sudden movements and shaking. The Earth's structure, including its layers and crust, plays a crucial role in these processes.

• Mantle

How are the large pieces of the Earth's crust described?

• As a single solid piece

• As smooth and flat

• As liquid layers

What is a fault in the context of Earth's crust?

• A type of rock

• A mountain range

• A deep ocean trench

• A line where plates touch

What happens when pressure builds up between stuck plates?
