We know Earth’s plates move – drawing apart from each other, rubbing together or colliding, which pushes one plate down and another up and creating numerous geographical features. Cite one example of a geographical feature (mountains, island arcs, valleys, hills, hot springs, active faults) created by plate tectonics common in your place and describe its structure and importance in the community.
