What are vocanos made of?
volcanoes are formed when two plates in the earths crust move and magma from deep inside move upwards.
Where are tectonic plates located?
The entire crust (or outer layer) of the planet Earth is composed of plates, and the movements of those plates are described by the science of plate tectonics.
Movement of the crustal plate?
When the crustal plate moves it vibrates the earths crust and its plates. When the crust and plates are forced to move it can result in volcanic action.
LHow does plate tectonics explain the volcanoes form along the mid ocean ridge?
plates move by the convectional currents in the magma below the earths crust, and so they move the plates. the earths crust is split up into plates and when the convectional current moves them, they can collide. when they collide, they make the plate thinner on that area and this allows the molten to come through. each time the volcanoe erupts, the volcanoe gets bigger and bigger as more layers of molton rock are composited on to the volcanoe.
What is Another Name For The Plates That Move Around?
If you mean for the plates that are the earth's crust they are called 'Tectonic Plates'.
What are cracks in earths crust that move or shift?
Tectonic plates.
Earthquakes happen when these sections of Earth's crust move?
earthquakes happen when these sections of earths crust move
Earthquakes happen when what section of the earths crust move?
The tectonic plates.
What layer of earth is made up of plates that move?
The earths crust
Why is the earths crust always moving?
Simple- Convection in the mantle causes mantle to slowly move, and it pushes against the crust. As it does this, the tectonic plates move.
In what ways do plates in the earths crust move?
they move in all sorts of ways like the bottom and the top lol :}
What are the large pieces of earths crust that move over the asthenosphere called?
the tectonic plates lol
What are vocanos made of?
volcanoes are formed when two plates in the earths crust move and magma from deep inside move upwards.
What is the surface on which the lithospheric plates move around earths surface?
Lower mantle is the surface on which the lithospheric plates move around earths surface.
How do earthqukes form?
The earths crust is split into large pieces called plates. When they move they cause a earthquake.
What is the name of the boundary were to plates of the earths crust move apart?
Constructive because new land is 'constructed'
Why does japan has lot of earthquake?
Japan is sitting on 2 plates that are below the earths crust. The plates move causing earth quakes when they rub
