What Is the theory that the earths lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere?
A theory that says the lithosphere is divided into plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere is called '' plate tectonics''
What are plate tectonics and what does it have to do with the earths shape?
Plate tectonics are what each continent is on. They move and are continuing to move today. It has to do with the earth's shape because the plate tectonics move the continents around.
What theory states that plates move around on the athenosphere?
The theory that states that plates move around on the asthenosphere is called plate tectonics. This theory explains the movement of the Earth's lithosphere into different plates and their interactions at plate boundaries due to the convective currents in the asthenosphere beneath them.
What is the theory that the earth's plates move slowly to new locations over geological time?
The theory is called plate tectonics, which explains how the Earth's lithosphere is divided into plates that move over the asthenosphere. This movement is driven by processes like mantle convection, causing continents to drift apart or come together over millions of years.
The theory that earths lithosphere is broken into large sections that move is called?
Plate tectonics
Do the plate tectonics move?
they move because of the magma
Do plate tectonics work by subduction?
no magma riseing thur gaps in plate causes them to move called seafloor spread
What are the huge sections of the earth's crust that move called?
The huge sections of the Earth's crust that move are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid layer beneath them, known as the asthenosphere, and their movements contribute to processes like earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation.
Why do earthquakes and volcanoes show up where they do?
When two tectonics plate move together and volcanoes are made by alot of magma
What is the word when plates move?
Plate Tectonics
How do continent move apart?
plate tectonics
What is the theory that says the lithosphere is divided into plates that move around on the top of the asthenosphere called?
The theory is called Plate Tectonics.
