Tectonics is the study of crustal deformation and structural behavior. Plate Tectonics is the deformation and structural behavior of crustal plates
The geological theory developed to explain observations that interactions of the brittle plates of the lithosphere with each other and with the softer underlying asthenosphere lead to large-scale changes in the Earth. The theory of plate tectonics initially stemmed from observations of the shapes of the continents, particularly South America and Africa, which fit together like pieces in a jigsaw puzzle and have similar rocks and fossils despite being separated by a modern ocean.
