Convection in the earth's mantle.
It causes earthquakes.
Heat rising from within the Earth causes the Earth's tectonic plates to move. The constant rising and sinking of heat are called convection currents.
because they are pushing against one another and so it causes fricton. when there is fricton the plates move and create a earth quake and or creves
Mantle convection causes the tectonic plates of the Earth to move slowly. Mantle convection is when heat moves from the mantle to the surface and causes the mantle, and the tectonic plates to move very slowly.
those are tecktonic plates which are delicate.when they move crackes occur. when tecktonic plates move under water it creates viberations which causes tsunamis.
Convection in the earth's mantle.
The Asthensphere.
Magma moving underneath the earth causes tectonic plates to move about.
continental drift
The movement of the Earth's plates is known as plate tectonics. Geologists think the plates move due to a build up of extreme heat in the Earth's crust.
It causes earthquakes.
Radioactive decay of long-lived isotopes in the Earth's deep interior is the source of heat which causes convection currents in the magma which causes tectonic plates to move.
because of the plates in earth shift fast and the force causes the earth to shake.
every year the plates move slowly and when the plates meet, that's what causes an earth quake
Heat rising from within the Earth causes the Earth's tectonic plates to move. The constant rising and sinking of heat are called convection currents.
Plates at our planet's surface move because of the intense heat in the Earth's core that causes molten rock in the mantle layer to move.
Earth's tectonic plates move and seismic waves begin to occur.
