How are the plate motions connected with motions within the rest of earth mantle?
convection currents in the mantle provide the basic driving forces for plate motions.
How are plate motions connected with motions within the rest of earth's mantle?
convection currents in the mantle provide the basic driving forces for plate motions.
What are mechanisms of plate motions described as?
Plate tectonics.
The parts of convection current in the mantle are related to plate motions?
Waves is the part of convection current. This is the mantle and is related to plate motions.
Which has not been proposed as a mechanism of plate motions?
The idea that plate motions are caused by electromagnetic forces has not been widely proposed as a mechanism of plate motions. The most accepted mechanism is the theory of plate tectonics, which suggests that plate motions result from the movement of convection currents in the Earth's mantle. Other proposed mechanisms include ridge push, slab pull, and mantle plumes.
How are plates motions connected with motions within the rest of the earths mantle?
convection currents in the mantle provide the basic driving forces for plate motions.
What are three plate motions that can cause earthquakes?
Any and all plate motion causes earthquakes.
How do plate motions effect Earth's crust?
it kills you to death
How do motions affect Earth's crust?
Plate motions produce stress in Earths crust that leads to faults, mountain building, and earthquakes.
What process within earth's asthenosphere is responsible for plate motions?
Rocks
What kinds of mountains are formed by plate tectonic motions?
All of them. Every mountain there is.
What is a Lithospheric Plate?
It also known as Plate tectonics.it is a theory in science that explains the large-scale motions of Earth's lithosphere
