What is the term used by geoligests for water that soaks in the ground fills the openings in the soil and trickles into cracks and spaces in layers of rock?
The underground water that fills opening in soil and cracks in layers of rocks is called ground water.
What theory states that plates move around on the athenosphere?
the crust cracks and magma fills in the space
What material that rises to surface at mid-ocean ridge?
Sea-floor spreading due to convection currents in the Earth's mantle (although this is still under investigation). Magma is pushed up through the cracks in the sea-floor as the plates move apart.
How does new mid-ocean ridge form?
a mid-ocean ridje is an undersea mountain chain where new ocean floor is produced;a divergent plate boundary under the ocean.
Why do oceanic rises and oceanic ridges exist?
They are located at spreading centers in the middle of the ocean. As tectonic plates move apart, magma fills it in and creates ridges and rises which are essentially mountain chains.
What is the underground water that fills openings in soil and cracks in layers of rock?
The underground water that fills opening in soil and cracks in layers of rocks is called ground water.
What happens first rocks break apart or water fills tiny cracks in rocks and freezes or ice pushes against rocks?
All rocks have cracks in them. If water fills the cracks and freezes, it expands and pushes the rock apart.
The underground water that fills openings in soil and cracks in layers of rock is called?
The underground water that fills opening in soil and cracks in layers of rocks is called ground water.
What escapes from cracks in the ocean floor?
Heat as well as lava can seep from cracks in the ocean floor.
What is the term used by geoligests for water that soaks in the ground fills the openings in the soil and trickles into cracks and spaces in layers of rock?
The underground water that fills opening in soil and cracks in layers of rocks is called ground water.
What happens when two oceanic plates move?
When the plates separate water fills in the cracks, this leaves trenches ie. (Mariana Trench) the deepest part of the ocean approx. 7mil below sea level.
What happens when Two plates moving apart?
When the plates separate water fills in the cracks, this leaves trenches ie. (Mariana Trench) the deepest part of the ocean approx. 7mil below sea level.
Magma from Earth's interior oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges?
Yes, magma oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
Magma from Earth's interior oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.?
Yes, magma oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
Does magma from the earth oozes from the cracks at mid ocean ridges?
Yes, magma from the earth oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
Does Magma from Earth's interior oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges?
Yes, magma oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
Does magma from earth interior oozes from the cracks at mid ocean ridges?
Yes, magma oozes from the cracks at mid-ocean ridges.
