A tectonic plate is also referred to as lithospheric plate and it can be defined as an enormous, solid, irregularly shaped rock slab, that is typically made up of two (2) plates:
The theory of plate tectonics states that the solid outer crust of planet Earth (lithosphere) is divided into enormous (massive) slabs of solid rock (plates) that move over the asthenosphere, as well as the upper portion of mantle.
According to the theory of plate tectonics, the arrangement of continents, oceans, volcanic activity and the formation of landforms such as mountains, are caused by the movement of tectonic plates over millions of years.
In conclusion, there may not be formation of new mountains if tectonic plates stopped moving because they are the agents responsible for its formation.
