Answer:

D. They all consist of large pieces of the lithosphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

The "tectonic plates" are large pieces of the lithosphere, thus, they are also called "lithospheric plates." They're not of the same size nor shape. They come in various sizes that are massive and have irregular shapes. They are not only found under continents but some can also be found under the ocean (oceanic lithosphere).

So, this makes choice D correct.
