What else can I help you with?
What are plate movement?
the movement of earths plates or crust
What is tactonic plates?
PLATE TECTONICS is the study of the movement of the earths continental plates
What is the theory that describes large-scale movement of earths lithosphere?
plate tectonics :)
A crack in the earths crust caused by tectonic plate movement is called a?
Fault.
What is directly linked to heat convection within earths interior?
Tectonic Plate Movement
What causes volcanoes to erupt under earths surface?
mostly earthquakes or plate tectonic movement.
What ocean floor feature is formed by movement of earths plate?
what other ocean floor feature is fromed by movement of earth's plates
Which movement of the Earths crust implies that the continental crust is less dense than the oceanic crust?
Plate tectonic movement and subduction zones.
What is the theory that the landmasses on the earths crust slowly move away or toward each other?
Movement of landmasses on the earth's crust is a dynamic that is termed plate tectonics. Use the link below to the related question for more information.
How are the layers of the earth related to the movement of the earths tectonic plates?
The layers of the Earth, such as the lithosphere and asthenosphere, are directly related to the movement of tectonic plates. The lithosphere, which comprises the rigid outer part of the Earth, is broken into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere. The movement and interaction of these plates is what drives processes like plate tectonics, earthquakes, and volcanic activity.
What is compression in plate tectonics?
it is the movement of the earths crust. it moves inwards towards other plates so the earths crust moves upwards therefore forming mountains, volcanoes etc
All energy that drives earth's rock cycle comes from?
The energy that drives Earth's rock cycle comes from the Earth's internal heat, which originates from the decay of radioactive isotopes in the Earth's core and mantle. This heat causes convection currents in the mantle, leading to plate tectonics, volcanic activity, and the movement of rocks through the rock cycle.
