Tectonic plates can include?
Tectonic plates can either be continental or oceanic.
What happens when tech tonic plates collide with oceanic plates?
Tectonic plates are oceanic plates. But when tectonic plates collide and a convergent boundary earthquakes occur.
Name two types of tectonic plates?
The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic.
What caused pangaea's plates to move?
The movement of tectonic plates caused by convection currents in the mantle.
What causes friction on tectonic plates?
the movement of tectonic plates
Do oceanic plates move?
the ocean plates move because of the movement of the the tectonic plates beneath the ocean and do to the motion of the oceans currents.
What forces are thought to cause plate tectonic movement?
Convection currents (the movement of magma beneath the plates)
Tectonic plates can include?
Tectonic plates can either be continental or oceanic.
How many tectonic plates are made of only oceanic crust?
how many tectonic plates are made of oceanic crust
The movement of tectonic plates is inferred by many scientists to be driven by?
Convection currents in the asthenosphere
What happens when tech tonic plates collide with oceanic plates?
Tectonic plates are oceanic plates. But when tectonic plates collide and a convergent boundary earthquakes occur.
Are in constant motion and change the forms of the Earth's crust?
Tectonic Plates ----APEX ;D
How Ar ocean trenches formed?
They form by erosion, either from under water volcanos or the currents that constantly move the water. The point is they both cause trenches, also oceanic plate movement.
In the mantle and core make tectonic plates move?
Convection currents in the mantle and core make tectonic plates move. The continental crust of the Earth is thicker and lighter than the oceanic crust.
What is the process called that causes the tectonic plates to move?
Its more ov a movement really not a process. Tectonic plates move due to convection currents in the mantle.
Name two types of tectonic plates?
The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic.
What causes the convection currents in the asthenosphere?
The convection currents running through the asthenosphere are widely believed to be the source of movement of the tectonic plates.
