Plate boundaries are the dynamic margins where tectonic plates converge, diverge, or slide past each other, driving geologic activity like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. These activities contribute significantly to the rock cycle, a continuous process where rocks are formed, broken down, and reformed through igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic stages, influenced by factors such as heat, pressure, and erosion. As rocks weather and erode, their particles contribute to soil formation, creating a blend of minerals, organic matter, gases, and liquids that sustains plant life and supports diverse ecosystems. Together, these interconnected systems shape the Earth's surface and contribute to its ever-changing landscape.
