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.
They believe that Earth was once all molten when it was first forming. Since iron is one of the heavier elements, it would have sank to the inside of the earth due to gravity.
beacuse the seamounts were once formed as volcanoes
I think Mars is bigger than Earths moon.
i think you mean "doormant". A dormant volcano is one that isn't currently active or erupting, but geologists think that it's still capable of erupting.
how do geologists think earths atmosphere is formed
Electric currents in Earth's molten outer core.
Because they have to get through the minerals and rocks in the earths crust.
The movement of the Earth's plates is known as plate tectonics. Geologists think the plates move due to a build up of extreme heat in the Earth's crust.
I think it's the atmosphere
other orbiting bodies contain more iron than earths crust does

scientists think that the earths core is made up of mostly iron, and contains smaller amounts of copper nickel.
Iron is magnetic which forms the Earth's magnetic field.
geologists affect our lives in the following ways. they monitor seismic activities within the earths interior and are able to warn us of impending earthquakes and impending shockwaves geologists monitor volcanoes and are able tom predict when the next eruption will occur and the expected magnitude geologists are also important in the process of drilling boreholes as they have crucial information on the type of soil found in different areas and they can offer crucial advice in the process of drilling bore holes geologists also moniter the earths magnetic fields and can use this fields to date rocks which can then tell us crucial movements of tectonic plates

I think the outside portion of the atom contains nothing. Its mainly empty space.
