What does Brianna Ellison drink?
Gin and tonic with extra lime
What is a good sentence for plates?
I saw a man juggling six plates! We are using paper plates this evening.
What do you call a carbonated drink that improves tone vigor and function of an organ?
This is an energy drink.
What are continental plates made of?
AnswerThe continental plates are made up of largely granitic rock, while the oceanic plates are largely basaltic rock. Certainly some other types of rock are included, but these are the largest contributors to the material or composition. A link is provided below for more information.
Why is oceanic plate denser than continental plate?
Oceanic plates are primarily made up of basaltic rock while continental plates are primarily made of granitic rock. Basalt is denser than granite which allows oceanic plates to subduct beneath continental plates.
What is the synonym and antonym of plate boundary?
Tech-tonic Plates?
What happens when tech tonic plates collide with oceanic plates?
Tectonic plates are oceanic plates. But when tectonic plates collide and a convergent boundary earthquakes occur.
Where might magma rise to earth surface?
Near the tech-tonic plates of the earth.
How is a vally formed?
When tech tonic plates push down. Erosion is a big former of valleys.
How mountain forms?
Mountains are formed when two plates collide,They both push upwards and create a mountain.
What are the major forces that form folded mountains?
I think earthquakes and shifting plates (plate tech tonic theory) :)
Why do Volcanoes occur in particular states?
that where the tech tonic plates are split so mountains form and then the magma rises and occurs
Stress that occurs when forces act to stretch an object?
The boundary between tech tonic plates that are sliding past each other horizontally
What makes tsunami more destructive?
IT depends on how hard the tech-tonic plates hit under water and how high the sea level is.
Were do continents move?
Continents move due to the process of plate tectonics, where the Earth's outer shell is divided into several large, rigid plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them. These plates can move and interact with each other, resulting in phenomena like the drifting of continents, earthquakes, and volcanic activity.
Why tsunami affected so many countries?
Because there are tech-tonic plates and when they rub against one another they make underwater earthquakes that make huge waves go in every direction.
What happens when continents collide?
When continents collide, they can either merge together to form a larger landmass or create mountains due to the intense pressure and folding of the Earth's crust. This process, known as continental collision, can lead to the formation of mountain ranges like the Himalayas when two continental plates collide. Additionally, it can also cause earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the rearrangement of land and sea boundaries.
