What else can I help you with?
What do you call the deep valley where two plates move apart?
A deep valley where two tectonic plates move apart is called a rift valley. This occurs due to divergent plate tectonics, where the plates separate and magma rises to create new crust. Examples include the East African Rift Valley and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.
What is the structure that forms as tectonic plates move apart?
On continents it is called a Rift Valley or Graben. in the ocean it is call a Mid Oceanic Ridge.
What is the thin country running along the end of the great rift valley?
The thin country running along the end of the great rift valley in Africa is Malawi. It lies between Tanzania, Mozambique and Zambia. You have probably not heard of it because there are no violent conflicts, wars and there is enough food for the people. It is one of the most beautiful countries in the World, and life is not as expensive. Visit the country one of these days - and give me a call when you come!
Where the crustal plates are moving apart what do you call it?
A divergent or constructive plate boundary. There can also be specific names like "a mid oceanic ridge" or a "rift valley".
When was Call of the Valley created?
Call of the Valley was created in 1967.
What do you call a piece of land between mountains?
this is the worst ansere ever. f you jk
Why are number plates called number plates if they have letters in them?
We call them license plates where I live.
What happens when the Earth's crust splits apart and forms a valley?
It causes what we call "sea-floor spreading." Sea-floor spreading is the process in which the ocean floor is extended when two plates move apart. As the plates move apart, the rocks break and form a crack between the plates. Earthquakes occur along the plate boundary. Magma rises through the cracks and seeps out onto the ocean floor like a long, thin, undersea volcano.
What do you call the area where two tectonic plates meet?
The area where two tectonic plates meet is called a plate boundary. At plate boundaries, interactions between the plates can result in processes like subduction, seafloor spreading, or continental collision.
What do you call a space between two mountains?
The space is called a vally-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Actually it depends on what you mean by "between" . the actually space that lies between two mountain tops is called a saddle. Thinking of a valley as the intersection where the two sides of two mountains merge is a bit of stretch but could be true. In that case, the valley originates at the saddle which often forms a valley on opposite sides.
A deep narrow gorge with high steep sides that has been cut by running water?
A 'hanging valley' is a valley which is cut across by a river flowing in a deeper valley.
What do you call a valley among mountains?
A valley among mountains is commonly referred to simply as a mountain valley.
