How much does the earth grow each day?
Well actually the earth is shrinking scientists say because the core is cooling. SCIENTIFIC THOUGHT!
What are the Diastrophic movements of the earth?
*Plate tectonic theory *continental drift theory *convection theory *expansion theory theories of diastrophism and diastrophic movements of the earth have the same meaning
What theory explains that the earth's crust is made up of plates?
a theory called Earth Crust Displacement (ECD)
Does the big bang theory suggest the moment at which the earth formed?
No. The Big Bang theory is an explanation on the formation of the universe. Earth did not form until billions of years later.
What does Al Gore's 'Earth in the balance' mean?
He means the earth is in danger of a lot of things that he is trying to propose as a theory. There are arguments about this subject. He means the earth is in danger of a lot of things that he is trying to propose as a theory. There are arguments about this subject.
Did Alfred Wegner provide evidence from land forms and climate in support of his theory of the shrinking Earth?
Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift, not a shrinking Earth theory. He used evidence such as the fit of the continents, matching rock formations, and fossil distribution to support his idea that the continents had once been part of a single landmass called Pangaea. Wegener's theory eventually led to the development of the theory of plate tectonics.
How does the shrinking earth theory link with the crust?
The shrinking Earth theory suggests that in the past, the Earth was larger and has been gradually contracting over time. This could affect the crust by leading to the formation of more tectonic activity, such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, as the Earth's surface adjusts to the shrinking interior.
Is it true that Alfred wegner provided evidence from landforms and climate in support of his theory of the shrinking earth?
No, Alfred Wegener provided evidence from continental drift and fossil distribution to support his theory of plate tectonics, not a shrinking Earth. Wegener's theory suggested that the continents were once connected in a single landmass (Pangaea) and drifted apart over time due to the movement of tectonic plates.
Is it true that Alfred wegener provided evidence from landforms fossils and climate to support his theory of the shrinking earth?
No, Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift, not a shrinking earth. He used evidence from matching coastlines, fossils, rock types, and climate to support his idea that the continents were once joined in a single supercontinent called Pangaea.
Why isn't the earth shrinking?
It's called "physics". We could possibly be more specific if you told us why you thought the Earth ought to be shrinking.
What evidence supports the idea that the earths is neither growing nor shrinking in size?
The physical mass of Earth isn't changing. The amount of habitable land is shrinking due to rising seas & advancing deserts.
What is contraction theory of diastrophism?
Contraction theory of diastrophism suggests that the Earth's crust undergoes compression, leading to the formation of mountain ranges and other structures due to the crust being forced to shorten and thicken. This theory explains the mechanisms behind the folding and faulting of rock layers, which are common features in regions with compressional tectonic forces.
Why is fresh water a limeted resource?
because of its only1% availability on earth and shrinking
Why did people believe that the features of the earth were caused by the crust shrinking?
Because they were dumb
Who is the author of 'theory of the earth'?
The author of 'theory of the earth' is James Hutton.
When the theory that the sun goes earth was replace with the theory that earth goes around the sun?
When the theory that the Sun goes around the Earth was replaced with the theory that the Earth goes around the Sun, it was called a paradigm shift.
When was A New Theory of the Earth created?
A New Theory of the Earth was created in 1696.
