Lithosphere plates move slow or fast?
Lithosphere plates move at a slow speed, typically ranging from a few centimeters to a few inches per year. This movement is driven by the slow convection currents in the mantle beneath the lithosphere. However, over long periods of time, this slow movement can result in significant changes to Earth's surface.
How do lithosphere plates move where convection currents rise?
They move apart.
What are the plates that move and the lithosphere is made of them?
The plates that move are called tectonic plates. The lithosphere is made up of these plates, which consist of both the crust and the upper part of the mantle. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below, causing them to move and interact with each other at plate boundaries.
What part of the mantle allows tectonic plates to move?
The lithosphere.
What happens in asthenosphere?
It's where the plates of the lithosphere move around on, the plastic like layer of the asthenosphere. the plates move around on these
What allows the tectonic plates in the lithosphere to move?
the hot magma moves around and they move.
What layer of the earth do its plates move on?
the lithosphere but mostly inner mantle
What is partially molten layer on which tectonic plates of the lithosphere move?
crust
What layer moves at tectonic plates?
The lithosphere is the layer that moves with the tectonic plates. The lithosphere is made up of the crust and the upper part of the mantle, and it is broken into tectonic plates that move and interact with each other.
What is sliding boundary?
forms when two {crustal} lithosphere plates move apart.
What iis a plate tectonics?
The theory that the lithosphere is broken down into plates that can move.
Large pieces of the lithosphere that move around on the asthenosphere are called?
large pieces of the lithosphere that move around on the asthenosphere are called Tectonic Plates.
