What are plate movement?
the movement of earths plates or crust
What is tactonic plates?
PLATE TECTONICS is the study of the movement of the earths continental plates
What is the theory of formation and movement of the plates that cover the earths surface?
the movement and formation of the plates or continents is caused by conduction under the crust.
What theory of the formation and movement of the plates that cover the earths surface?
the movement and formation of the plates or continents is caused by conduction under the crust.
How might the plasticity of the mantle influence the movement of the earths lithospheric plates?
Plasticity means that there is enough movement in the asthenosphere to allow thelithospheric plates to move.
What occurs on faults?
The tectonic plates underneath the earths crust are moving, and these plates crash into, and slide against each other. These places where the plates meet are called fault lines. Since the plates are constantly moving, there is a lot of pressure between the plates, and eventually, it needs to be released in the form of an earthquake.
What is a sudden shaking of the earths crust caused by the movement of tectonic plates?
EARTHQUAKE
What causes stress earths crust?
The movement in earths plates create powerful forces that pull or squeeze the rock in the crust.
What type of current is responsible for the movement of earths lithosphere plates?
Nothing its all fake
What do the yellow arrows in this illustration represent in the earths core?
movement of earth's tectonic plates
What occurs when the plates of rock that form Earths surface slide back and forth?
An EarthQuake Accurs
What are two ways the movement of earths plates changes the earths surface?
The movement of Earth's plates can create geological features like mountains and volcanoes through processes such as subduction and continental collision. It can also lead to earthquakes when plates shift along faults in the Earth's crust.
