Plates and Motion
Lithospheric plates float/move on the mantle.
Boundaries
Divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries shape geology.
Impacts
Drive quakes, mountains, and volcanism; map hazard zones.

Comparison
Mitosis vs Meiosis
Mitosis makes matching cells for growth and repair, while meiosis creates sex cells and introduces genetic variation.
