What theory states that plates move around on the athenosphere?
the crust cracks and magma fills in the space
Which theory describes the motion of earth's crust on its mantle?

What theory explains the movement of pieces of earths surface?
theory of plate tectonics
What geological theory states that pieces of the Earth's lithosphere are in constant slow motion?
The geological theory that states that pieces of earths crust are in constant slow motion is called the Continental Drift Theory. This theory also considers Pangea, the way the continents were before the drift.
What other scientists except for geologist find the theory of plate tectonics in their work?
Geophysicists, Seismologists, Geomorphologists and Palaeontologists are some examples of scientists who's work involves or is affected by the theory of plate tectonics.

How do you plates tectonics and the theory of plate tectonics?

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''
What theory states that earth's surface is broken into separate plated?

What does the theory of plate tectonics affirm?

The theory of plate tectonics affirms what?
The theory of plate tectonics explains large scale motion of the earth's lithosphere.
What theory explains the movement of pieces of earths surface?
theory of plate tectonics
Why is plate tectonics theory thought to be a unifying theory?
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.
