But plate tectonics is the theory which suggests that the Earth's crust is made up of solid plates moving relative to each other. Plate tectonics and the plate tectonics theory aren't really two separate things. However plates are pieces of the Earth's crust which are moving.
What else can I help you with?
What is a creationist theory for plate tectonics?
Creationist theory and plate tectonics do not disagree in any way.
What theory states that earth's surface is broken into separate plated?
Plate tectonics
What Is the theory that the earths lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere?
A theory that says the lithosphere is divided into plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere is called '' plate tectonics''
What is The theory that describes large scales movements of the lithosphere called?
Plate tectonics
What does the theory of plate tectonics affirm?
The theory of plate tectonics explains large scale motion of the earth's lithosphere.
The theory of plate tectonics affirms what?
The theory of plate tectonics explains large scale motion of the earth's lithosphere.
Why is plate tectonics theory thought to be a unifying theory?
Plate tectonics is considered to be a unifying theory because a consensus finds it to be true. Most scientists believe the plate tectonics cause volcanoes and earthquakes.
What is another name for the plate tectonic theory?
The Theory of Plate Tectonics?
What theory states that plates move around on the athenosphere?
The theory that states that plates move around on the asthenosphere is called plate tectonics. This theory explains the movement of the Earth's lithosphere into different plates and their interactions at plate boundaries due to the convective currents in the asthenosphere beneath them.
How do you plates tectonics and the theory of plate tectonics?
They are the same thing.
Define and relate the following to the plate tectonics theory?
There are 2 tectonics theories namely: divergent boundary and subduction zone. The boundary of the plate tectonics where two plates are placed is called divergent boundary while the subduction zone is a convergent boundary where in one plate is subducted on another.
How is theory of plate tectonics similar to the continental drift?
continental drift is caused by plate tectonics
