when the plates break apart, it makes new land.
When continents break apart into separate land masses, it is called continental drift or plate tectonics. This process is driven by the movement of the Earth's lithospheric plates.
When continents break apart into separate land masses, it is called continental drift. This process is driven by the movement of tectonic plates in the Earth's lithosphere.
When continents break apart into separate land masses, it is called continental drift or plate tectonics. This process is driven by the movement of the Earth's lithosphere plates, leading to the separation of previously connected land masses.
When continents break apart into separate land masses, it is called continental drift or plate tectonics. This process is driven by the movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface, leading to the separation of continents over millions of years.
when the land is pushed farther apart to form more land
When continents break apart into separate land masses, it is called continental drift or plate tectonics. This process is driven by the movement of Earth's tectonic plates, which can cause continents to shift and separate over millions of years.
Most earthquakes happen at the plates because the plates (continental plates) sometimes move. If it moves and slides against another one going the other way, the plates' connecting part will tremble and shake and fall apart. It starts like this: 1. The plates start to move. The land between, roads, and other things bend. 2. The plates suddenly break, and some of the roads get carried away, so everything falls apart.
It forms a rift valley.
it makes a mountain
Continental drift - the movement of tectonic plates
the shifting of earths plates can cause land to rise and slowly make mountains
