What does plates do?
Tectonic plates are sections of the Earth's crust, which float on the mantle beneath the crust. You can see where plates end at fault lines, like the San Andreas fault line in the USA, These plates are constantly shifting, and if they collide, the shockwave can cause an earthquake and/or Tsunami
Why does the earth get earth quakes?
The earth's crust is divided up into big chunks, and these chunks are essentially what we live on today. in between the chunks, where one meets another, there are lines running through the ground. These are called fault lines. Now, because the mantle is just molten lava, the crust just moves along as it pleases. When two chunks float around and rub up against one another, this causes vibrations on the fault lines. This also causes the ground to move and shake, what we call an earthquake :) Hope this helped
Where is the mantle located in the clam?
The mantle in a clam is a thin layer of tissue that surrounds the body and lines the inside of the shell. It is located between the body and the shell of the clam and plays a role in secreting the calcium carbonate that forms the shell.
How would you determine the elevation of a point that falls between two contour lines?
The elevation of a point that falls between two contour lines can be approximately determined by averaging the elevation of those two points. Assuming the point is somewhat halfway between the lines, this can be done by adding the elevations and dividing by two.
What has the author Stephen C Sieberson written?
Stephen C. Sieberson has written: 'Dividing lines between the European Union and its member states'
What places where tectonic plates separate is called?
Places where tectonic plates separate are known as divergent boundaries. At these boundary locations, magma rises from the mantle, forming new crust as the plates move apart.
What is the difference between fault lines and plate boundaries?
Fault lines are fractures in Earth's crust where movement has occurred, while plate boundaries are the regions where tectonic plates meet and interact. Fault lines can be found within a single plate or at plate boundaries, where they are associated with seismic activity due to the movement of tectonic plates.
What are the dividing lines between American literary trends?
Unfortunately, no literary genres are totally isolated. Typically, literary trends feed off of one another, and there is a slow shift from one trend to another, but no set dividing line.
What are the boundary lines for Paradise Elementary school in the Spring Grove PA school district?

How many lines of symmetry does a V have?

What are ways of dividing a square in half?
