What is the Plate under the ocean?
Techtonic plates move under the earth moving land and water.
Do techtonic plates cause harm?
Tectonic plates can cause harm, when they collide with, plunge under one another etc. This is a cause of earthquakes
What natural process led to and caused the Japan earthquake?
The movement of techtonic plates under the earth's crust
Why do they have volcanoes?
Volcanoes form from either techtonic plates crashing together or from hot spots under the earth
What is the plates under the ocean?
The plates under the ocean are part of Earth's lithosphere, known as oceanic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and interact with each other at plate boundaries, influencing geological processes like seafloor spreading, subduction, and volcanic activity.
What type of plate techtonic is Yellow Stone National Park and how was it created?
yellowstone is related to the plate techtonics because under the earth the plates move, under the park which a long time ago caused a volcano.
What are the plates under land areas called?
Land plates are called continental plates. Sea plates are called oceanic plates.
What is the cause of japan's tsunami?
An earthquake under the sea very close to Japan. Earthquakes are caused by the readjustment of the techtonic plates, and this is because the tectonic plates were converging into each other and since continental plates are more dense than oceanic plates the oceanic plates subducted into the mantle causing an earthquake under the sea. The waves slowly rolled across the ocean causing the waves to get larger as they were moving away from the focus point.
What is continteal drift?
find out under heading techtonic plates, may be another theory since i learnt this stuff the big is the same as the small look out at cosmos what you see is how fantastic your abilty of your preception is no limit.
What is the process of heavier plates moving under lighter plates called?
Subduction!
When two plates slide one under the other is called?
It's called the Transform, that's the second stage of the plates.
