What type of fault causes the land to move downward?
In a normal fault the hanging wall moves downward. With this type of fault, the hanging wall also shifts horizontally away from the fault line.
How does air move in a anticyclone and how does this effect the weather?
The air in anticyclones moves out from the center, cool air moves downward from higher in the troposphere. Anticyclone generally causes dry, clear weather.
How is convection in the mantle related to the movements of the tectonic plates?
because it moves the crust
What moves sugar downward toward the roots?

What fault moves rock downward?

What moves the crust?
Convection currents.
What explains the movement of the Earth?
The earth's crust moves because the earth has tectonic plates that move because the magma under the earth's surface is constantly boiling. Since the water moves, it causes the earth's crust to move.
What causes the Earth's crust to grow?
tectonic plates shifting. One moves under another and this causes the growth of new crust

What causes uplift?
The earth's crust moves and the crust moves up When you have something like the rifting of a continent, the lithosphere heats up and causes it to rise. sinking of craton edges can be caused by things like tectonic loading.
What happens at a destructive margin?
A destructive margin is when the oceanic crust moves towards the continental crust and slip under it (oceanic crust is heavier than the continental crust). This can build up a lot of pressure between the plates.
What causes existing mountains such as the Himalaya mountains to continue rising?
The earth crust consists of about 7 big plates, continents, and when they move towards each other 2 things can happen. 1. one plate moves under the other 2. the collide and both 'rise'. The plates constantly moves because of the different temperatures of the magma under the earth's crust.
