The activity of the earths moving plates is called?
The activity of the Earth's moving plates is called plate tectonics. It involves the movement and interaction of large sections of the Earth's lithosphere, resulting in phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges.
The idea that Earths lithosphere is divided into large moving sections is called the?
plate tectonic theory
What is the idea that earths lithosphere is divided into large moving sections called?
plate tectonic theory
Earths lithosphere is divided up into many moving sections called what?
plate tectionics theory......................:-)
What is the activity of the earth's moving plates called?
The activity of the Earth's moving plates is called plate tectonics. This movement is responsible for various geological phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountain ranges.
What are plates techonics?
plate tectonics are moving plates under the earths surface
Are plate tectonics moving a type of seismic activity?
YES.
Which the theory views the earths surface as composed of slowly moving plates?
Plate tectonics.
What are deep ocean trenches caused by?
Plate tectonics, the moving and repositioning of earths plates.
In which direction is Somali plate moving?
The Somali Plate is primarily moving northeastward. This movement is part of the broader tectonic activity in the East African Rift system, where the Somali Plate is diverging from the African Plate. The ongoing tectonic processes contribute to seismic activity and geological changes in the region.
What is the boundary between earths plates called?
Plate boundaries.
Are most volcanoes on land caused by the earths plates moving away from each other or moving toward each other?
Most volcanoes on land are caused by the Earth's plates moving toward each other, a process known as convergent plate boundary. When two plates converge, the denser oceanic plate subducts beneath the less dense continental plate, leading to the formation of volcanoes along the subduction zone.
