What else can I help you with?
Which of these is formed when plates of earths crust bend and crack?
a fault
What are oceans current are formed by what?
Moving plates in the earths mantle.
What type of mountain is formed when the earths crust is squeezed together?
It depends on the type of plates coming together but two continental plates will form a mountain chain. An example would be the Indian sub-continent colliding with Asia to form the Himalayas.
When did the earthquake plates get formed?
After pangea, the ancient super-continent, spread out.
What is formed as plates within earth bend and crack earths crust?
magma
How did blue ridge mountain formed?
They were formed by the colliding of the tectonic plates during the break-up of the Super Continent.
Most geologists thinks that the movement of earths plates is caused by?
Geologists have hypothesized that the movement of tectonic plates is related to convection currents in the earth's mantle. Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat.

What plates are in earths structure?
Techtonic plates
The Appalachian mountains where formed when two of earths plates collided. What type of faults would you expect to find in these mountains Why?
rverse and normal
What ocean floor feature is formed by movement of earths plate?
what other ocean floor feature is fromed by movement of earth's plates
Where do volcanoes most commonly happen?
cracks in the plates which make up the crust. the earths crust is not connected. its made up of plates that moves and they are formed by plates pushing together then collapsing. they erupt when it gets a lot of friction from the plates pushing together
