The theory that earths lithosphere is broken into large sections that move is called?
Plate tectonics
What else can I help you with?
Earths Litosphere Is Broken Into Separate Sections Called?
Earths lithosphere is made up of upper mantle. The earths lithosphere is broken into separate sections and it is called as tectonic plates or plate tectonics.
Earths lithosphere is divided up into many moving sections called what?
plate tectionics theory......................:-)
The idea that Earths lithosphere is divided into large moving sections is called the?
plate tectonic theory
What is the idea that earths lithosphere is divided into large moving sections called?
plate tectonic theory
What is earths lithosphere broken up into?
Tectonic Plates
What is the earths lithosphere broken up into?
Tectonic Plates
What is the large chunk of earths crust?
Earth's crust is broken into sections called tectonic plates. They each float on the mantle, as part of the Earth called the lithosphere. Each is separated by highly seismic regions that usually spawn volcanoes. One of which is the Ring of Fire in the Pacific.
What is the crust and the upper mantle are called?
The crust and uppermost hard rocky mantle, together, is known as the lithosphere, which is above the plastic-like upper mantle area known as the asthenosphere.
What is the state of equilibrium which sections of the earths lithosphere achieve when vertical forces upon them are unchanged?
isostasy
The lithosphere is broken into pieces called what?
what causes the earths tectonic plates to move
Which process is currently accepted explanation of the movement of drifting continents?
the convection currents in the mantle under the earths curst is moving the broken plates in earths lithosphere causing the plates slide across the lithosphere. this process is called tectonics. (jon lay wrote this,)
The state of balance or equilibrium which sections of the earths lithosphere achieve when vertical forces upon them are changed?
Isostasy.
