There are two main evidences of plate tectonics:
Paleomagnetism- We find that ancient rocks have preserved the magnetism of Earth that was present at that time. Studying the paleomagnetism records, we have found out the polar wandering path, i.e. the path through which the poles moved on the surface of the Earth. The polar wandering path shows clearly that the continents were in a different position than they are now. Even Earth's field reversals are recorded in the rocks.
Earthquake patterns- The earthquake patterns clearly mark the boundaries of the crustal plates which further boosts the credibility of the plate tectonics model.
instruments used in plate tectonics?
the plate tectonics will be flat and no more volcanoes.
Plate tectonics is considered to be a unifying theory because a consensus finds it to be true. Most scientists believe the plate tectonics cause volcanoes and earthquakes.
plate tectonics and plate boundries
i do not think anyone knows in the whole world then...come really that's why they invented this site
yes it represets plate tectonics
Coriolis effect.
There is no conclusive evidence of plate tectonics on Venus. Although Venus does have tectonic features such as fractures and faults, they do not show the same pattern of movement and subduction observed on Earth. Additionally, Venus lacks evidence of large-scale crustal recycling associated with plate tectonics.
The ring of fire.
No, the moon does not have plate tectonics like Earth. The moon is a geologically inactive body with a solid, unmoving crust. There is no evidence of plate movements or continental drift on the moon.
Plate tectonics led to the theory of Pangaea.
We don't answer questions from printed/copyrighted materials.
they found fossils
Changes in the moon's orbit do not support plate tectonics. However, evidence such as hot spots forming island chains, measurement of plate motion, and other geological evidence like seafloor spreading and the distribution of fossils support the theory of plate tectonics.
Submarine mountain ranges, like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and deep oceanic trenches, such as the Mariana Trench, are evidence for plate tectonics. Earthquakes and volcanic activity along plate boundaries also support the theory of plate movement. Additionally, the distribution of rock types, fossils, and ancient climate indicators across continents provide further evidence for plate tectonics.
I can't find it in my packet either.
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.
