Is the Earth's surface still changing?
Yes. The tectonic plates are still moving, erosion is still taking place, some mountains continue to grow, and volcanoes continue to erupt new material.
Large crustal plates moving on the earth's surface are?
Tectonic plates.
How does the structure of the earth's surface result in an earthquake?
Its When Tectonic plates either collide Or Move Apart. Examples Of Tectonic Plates moving Together are mountains and volcanoes.
Why does the shape of the earth's oceans and continents continue to change?
Due to plate tectonics still moving, it causes the Earth's oceans and continents to continue moving.
Is it true that the earth's crust is stationary?
The crust is formed on tectonic plates that are always moving because of the magma melting the rock under the surface causing them to move, so, in a way the Earth's crust is moving.

What are most earthquakes cause by?
moving tectonic plates on earths surface
What are moving pieces under the earths surface that form the earths crust?
The answer is tectonic plates floating on the lithosphere. Does that answer your question? LOL :)
What is the difference between a tectonic hazard and a tectonic event?
a tectonic hazard is a disaster caused by the moving of tectonic plates.....anda tectonic activity is the moving of tectonic plates........

How can moving water change the earthe surface?
by wearing away small pieces of land and carrying them to new places
How does transform plate boundary changes the earth's surface?
over the last 20 million years the tectonic plates had moved so much the continents has separated :(
What events occur when the tectonic plates move and grind against each other?
When tectonic plates move and grind against each other, this is an earthquake. If the moving of tectonic plates were to occur beneath the ocean's surface, the result would be a tsunami.
Why does the shape of the earth's oceans and continents continue to change?
Due to plate tectonics still moving, it causes the Earth's oceans and continents to continue moving.
What makes an earthquake to create a volcano that make it erupt?
the moving of the tectonic plates which makes the earths surface unstable which then causes earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
How have volcanoes changed the surface of the earth over millions of years?
The world's tectonic plates are ever changing moving by centermetres every year. This moves
