because it gives scientists a way to study and predict geologic events.

What do you a scientists besides geologists who would find a theory of plate tectonic useful in their work?

What is the theory that the lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that move around?
That would be the theory of plate tectonics.
What type of sciences study tectonic plates?
Several things are studied by Earth scientists who specialize in tectonics. Plate boundaries, plate tectonics, boundaries, continental drift, mountains, and volcanoes are all studied.
What do geologists call a crustal landmass that moves as a unit?
A Tectonic Plate
What is another name for the plate tectonic theory?
The Theory of Plate Tectonics?
What are tectonic plates and why are they important to us?
A plate tectonics is a theory that describes the formation movements and interaction
What theory led to the plate tectonic theory?
James Hanslow
How did sonar contribute to the plate tectonic theory?
figure it out
What is the name of the theory that led to the development of the theory of plate tectonic?
squat-thrust
What Is the theory that the earths lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere?
A theory that says the lithosphere is divided into plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere is called '' plate tectonics''
Why is theory of plate tectonics is so important to geoligists?
It is important to geologists because it helps scientist view Earth. They learned hat the planets lithosphere has been in motion for millions of years. today, the theory helps them to explain Earths past and to predict what might happen along plate boundaries.
What does plate tectonic theory tell us?
Nothing, it's a theory, like evolution!
