What is the movement of rock pieces and other mineralson the earths surfaces?
Erosion.
How do weathering and erosion reshape the earths surface?
Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces by processes like freezing and thawing, while erosion transports the smaller pieces to new locations through movement agents like water or wind. These combined processes reshape the Earth's surface by gradually wearing down and redistributing rock materials over time.
What type of rock from on earths surface from pieces of other rocks?
Metamorphic in a sentence
What theory explains the movement of the pieces of earths surface?
theory of plate tectonics
What type of rock forms on earths surface from pieces of other rocks?
Metamorphic in a sentence
How does weathering and erosion shape earths surface?
Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to new locations. Over time, these processes can create features like valleys, canyons, and coastlines, shaping the Earth's surface.
What happens to earths surface as huge pieces of crust move?
most times earthquakes occur
What is a number of rigid but moving pieces of earths surface?
Tectonic plates are the rigid but moving pieces of Earth's surface that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below. These plates interact at plate boundaries, leading to various geological phenomena like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain formation.
When rocks and other materials on the earths surface are broken down into smaller pieces by natural forces such as wind and water it is known as?
The process of rocks and other materials on the Earth's surface being broken down into smaller pieces by natural forces such as wind and water is known as weathering. This gradual process helps to shape the landscape over time by breaking down and fragmenting rocks into smaller particles.
What are pieces of rocks that actually strike Earth's surface are called?
As a rock is falling through the atmosphere, it is a meteor. When it hits the earths surface, it is a meteoroid.
What theory explains the movement of pieces of earth surface?
theory of plate tectonics
When these pieces of earths surface crash together or scrape against one another the release of energy causes?
Earthquakes
