Vivid reminders that our planet is geologically active, volcanic eruptions are generated by the same heat engine that drives Earth's plates. Volcanoes form at places where large quantities of heat escape at the surface-sometimes quite dramatically. Earth's volcanoes vary widely in size, form, and explosivity. Some erupt violently, others pour out rivers of lava. This diversity is largely related to their plate-tectonic environments.

Does the sun support the process of plate tectonics?
No it does not, the molten core inside the Earth is what drives plate tectonics. The Sun has nothing to do with the process.
What drives the process of plate tectonics's?
unequal heat ditribution
Are plate tectonics flat?
yes plate tectonics are flat
What are the huge sections of the earth's crust that move called?
plate tectonics
There are many indications of plate tectonics on Mars?
No plate tectonics on Mars

What drives plate motion?
Plate tectonics is the name given to the forces that drive plate motion. Scientists don't know what causes the natural phenomenon of plate tectonics.
What drives the process of plate tectonics the currently accepted explanation for the movements of drifting continents?
Unequal heat distribution.
Which theory describes the motion of earth's crust on its mantle?
plate tectonics=D
What is The theory that describes large scales movements of the lithosphere called?
Plate tectonics
How do volcanoes help plate tectonics?
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.
What theory states that plates move around on the athenosphere?
the crust cracks and magma fills in the space
Are plate tectonics flat?
yes plate tectonics are flat
What are the huge sections of the earth's crust that move called?
plate tectonics
