The active earth's core continually recycles itself through subduction zones located around certain parts of the planet. The subduction zones are where one tectonic plate is being forced under another, thereby recycling the old crust. New crust is made at rift zones where magma is forced to the surface, cools and then becomes part of our visible (or underwater) earth surface.

Break in earths crust where pieces of the crust move relative to each other?
A fault is a break in the Earth's crust where pieces of the crust move relative to each other. This movement can cause earthquakes as stress builds up along the fault line and is released suddenly. Faults are common in regions where tectonic plates interact and are essential for understanding earthquake hazards.
What are cracks in earths crust that move or shift?
Tectonic plates.
What layer of earth is made up of plates that move?
The earths crust
Earthquakes happen when what section of the earths crust move?
The tectonic plates.
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.
What feature allows magma to move though the crust?
is it faults??
In what ways do plates in the earths crust move?
they move in all sorts of ways like the bottom and the top lol :}
Do some part of the earths crust move up 12 cm per year?
no
What is a break in the earths crust called that can move up down or sideways?
It is a fault. :D
How convection currents in the earth's mantle move?
They move because of the heat from the outer core and the mantle.
