Which region of the earth is soft and putty-like and allows for the movement of tectonic plates?
asthenosphe
What region of the earth is soft and putty like and allows for the movement of tectonic plates?
asthenosphere
What region of the earth contains tectonic plates?
the crust contains the tectonic plates!!
What tectonic plates caused the 1755 Lisbon earthquake?
The 1755 Lisbon earthquake was primarily caused by the movement of the Eurasian and African tectonic plates. These plates converge along the southwestern coast of Portugal, resulting in frequent seismic activity in the region.
What is a Athensphere?
The Athensphere is not a layer in the Earth. The asthenosphere is the region of the mantle that is capable of moving by convection and has been linked to the movement of the tectonic plates (the lithosphere).

What is a tectonic plate boundary?
The region where tectonic plates move toward, apart or horizontally past one another.
What is the most likely cause of the volcanic and earthquake activity in this region?
collision of tectonic plates
What is the most geologically active region on earth's surface?
boundaries between tectonic plates
How did the tectonic activity form southeast Asia?
The Eurasian, Philippine and Indo-Australian plates collided to form the region.
Earthquakes and volcanoes threaten the Andes because two tectonic plates meet at the region's edge true or false?
True.
On which tectonic plate does the UAE lie?
The UAE actually lies on one of the smaller tectonic plates, called the Arabian plate; the Arabian plate occupies most of the Middle-east region
