What layer of Earth makes up the plates and what layer causes them to move?
The layer of the Earth which makes up the plates is called the lithosphere. The lithosphere is composed of the continental and oceanic crusts along with the hard upper mantle.
The lithosphere is broken into pieces called what?
what causes the earths tectonic plates to move
What motion causes normal fault?
a pulling motion causes a normal fault
What are the affects of movement in the lithosphere?
Because the Lithosphere is made up of huge plates that move over the surface of the Earth which causes plates to move.
A blood enzyme that causes clotting by forming a fibrin is?
Thrombin
What forms when deformation causes the lithosphere to break?
There are different tectonic structures that are formed when deformation causes the lithosphere to break. The deformation of the lithosphere is caused by the weight of the ice.
What are spore forming protozoans called?
Sporozoans; includes the organism, Plasmodium, which causes malaria.
What causes the movements of the lithosphere?
volcanos and earthquakes

What happens to lithosphere when an ice sheet is removed?
The removal of the load causes something known as glacial isostatic rebound. The weight of the glacier causes the earth's lithosphere to deform (it squashes it). When the glacier retreats and the load is removed, the earth's lithosphere springs back to its original shape.
How do convection currents in the mantle effect lithosphere movement?
Convection currents rotate in the Lithosphere, which causes the surface of the Earth to move.
Built up heat from the mantle that weakens lithosphere causes?
rifting
Interaction between which two regions causes plate movement?
The lithosphere and the asthenosphere.
What causes your eyes to pop out of your head?
pulling them out.
What motion causes normal fault?
a pulling motion causes a normal fault
What is the causes of forming a cyst at ear?
