What else can I help you with?
Have found fossils on the top of mountains what do they infer?
Large plate tectonics or the fossils had wings.
What are some features of the ocean floor that provide evidence for plate tectonics?
they found fossils
How are seperation fossils found?
The fact that they were separated by sometimes thousands of miles suggested continental drift or plate tectonics.
Is plate tectonics the main lines of evidence are fossils climate clues rock and the theory of seafloor spreading?
Yes, plate tectonics is supported by various lines of evidence such as fossils showing similar species on different continents, climate clues like ancient glaciers in tropical regions, rock formations matching across continents, and the theory of seafloor spreading confirmed by magnetic striping on the ocean floor. These pieces of evidence collectively support the concept of plate tectonics and the movement of Earth's lithosphere.
Why permian fossils are important in understanding plate tectonics?
Paleontologists use a land bridge between continents to explain the existence of identical fossils that are spread out on separated land masses. They contend that the continents were once connected but have since drifted apart.
How do volcanoes help plate tectonics?
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.
What is The theory that describes large scales movements of the lithosphere called?
Plate tectonics
The early development of the theory of plate tectonics was supported by which of these observations?
The early development of the theory of plate tectonics was supported by observations such as the fit of continents, similar rock formations across continents, and the distribution of earthquakes and volcanic activity along plate boundaries.
Which of geologic processes formed most of californias nonmetalic mineral resources?
plate tectonics
Does seismologic evidence support plate tectonics?
yes it represets plate tectonics
Instrument used in studying plate tectonics?
instruments used in plate tectonics?
All of the following are evidence supporting plate tectonics except for A changes in the moon's orbit to shifting plates B hot spots forming island chains C measurement of plate motion D evidenc?
Changes in the moon's orbit do not support plate tectonics. However, evidence such as hot spots forming island chains, measurement of plate motion, and other geological evidence like seafloor spreading and the distribution of fossils support the theory of plate tectonics.
