How are crustal features related to plate tectonics?
well i think that it is that plate tectonics are when they move by earthquakes and crustal features are when they discribe the crustal and the plate tectonics.
What are the crustal features of the land that are formed by plate tectonics?
Crustal features created by plate tectonics include mountains (e.g. Himalayas), trenches (e.g. Mariana trench), volcanoes (see the Ring of Fire), ocean ridges (Mid-Atlantic Ridge) and rift zones (regions lateral to a volcano that lava flows from).
What are 3 earth features along the crustal plate boundaries?
convering divevering sliding
In which earth layer does crustal plate movement occur because of convection cells?
in which earth layers does crusal plate movement occur because of convection cells
What are terranes?
A terrane is a fragment of crustal material formed on, or broken off from, one tectonic plate and accreted
How are crustal features related to plate tectonics?

When is the last movement of the crustal plate?
The crustal plates are in constant motion, there is no last movement
What are the crustal features of the land that are formed by plate tectonics?
Crustal features created by plate tectonics include mountains (e.g. Himalayas), trenches (e.g. Mariana trench), volcanoes (see the Ring of Fire), ocean ridges (Mid-Atlantic Ridge) and rift zones (regions lateral to a volcano that lava flows from).
What is the study of internal processes that result in crustal movement?
Plate tectonics.
Formed when one crustal plate is forced under another?
trenches
What activity in the magma causes crustal plate movement?
convection currents. Causes the magma to move the earths crust creating plate movement.
What crustal feature is a result of divergent plate movement?
Mid-ocean ridge
What are 3 earth features along the crustal plate boundaries?
convering divevering sliding
What two features on earth's crust was formed by plate movement?
mountains and glacers i think but i know that mountains are right
In which earth layer does crustal plate movement occur because of convection cells?
in which earth layers does crusal plate movement occur because of convection cells
What are the 3 theories of crustal movement?
Plate Tectonics Continental drift theory 'Raisin' Theory
Movement of the crustal plate?
When the crustal plate moves it vibrates the earths crust and its plates. When the crust and plates are forced to move it can result in volcanic action.
