What new led to the theory of plate tectonics?
Continental drift, sea floor spreading, glacial striation, jigsaw fit of the continents, geological matches on different contintents (such as type of rock or fossil found) ,earthquakes, and volcanoes led to the theory of plate tectonics.
Are plate tectonics moving a type of seismic activity?
YES.
Do tornadoes have plate movements?
No. Tornadoes are a type of weather event. They have absolutely nothing to do with plate tectonics.
How is plate tectonics related to landslides?
because it is a type of techtonic plates
What type of plate boundaries should the students study in order to understand seafloor spreading?
plate tectonics
What type of mountain in not formed due to plate collision?
Volcanic mountains are not formed due to plate collision. Instead, they are formed when magma from within the Earth erupts onto the surface and builds up layers of volcanic rock over time.
What type of plate boundary formed Chimney Rock?
None, this formation is in the center of a continent. It is an erosion feature in sedimentary rocks.
What landform will be formed at this type of convergent plate boundary?
A landform that can be formed at a convergent plate boundary is a mountain range. This occurs when two continental plates collide, pushing up rock layers and creating uplifted peaks. Examples include the Himalayas formed by the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate.
What type of rock is formed by any kind of rock?
All rock types can be formed from any other rock type.
What type of boundary did the Mariana Trench form along?
The Mariana Trench was formed along a convergent boundary where two tectonic plates are colliding. More specifically, it was created by the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath the smaller Mariana Plate in a process known as plate tectonics.
What type of igneous rock is formed at divergent boundaries?
Who are you
What type of plate tectonics are in Gannett Peak in Wyoming?
Gannett Peak in Wyoming is part of the Rocky Mountains, which were formed by the collision of the North American Plate and the Pacific Plate. This collision resulted in the uplift and formation of the mountain range through a process called subduction.
