The surface of the Earth seems to be divided into water and land. Islands look disconnected, and many children even think that they are floating on the water. Many books describe plate tectonics as if the plates are the continents. This is not true. The continents are embedded in the plates. Many continents occur in the middles of plates, not at their boundaries or edges. Plates also underlie the Earths oceans. A single plate often includes both continental and oceanic regions. It is important that students begin to visualize or understand that the plates are a solid rock shell which includes both dry land and the "land" underneath the oceans.

nice cherrypicking but your eurocentric ideals are worthless in the face of real science.
