What do scientists call the giant puzzle pieces that make up the earths surface?
tectonic plates
What do you call the moving irregularly shaped slabs that make up the earths lithosphere?
Tectonic plates.
What are the plates that make up Earth's crust?
Tectonic plates
How many tectonic plates make up Earth's surface?
There are 7 major plates and 3 minor I think =)
What is one of the 30 sections that make up the earths surface?
Plates.
What do scientists call the giant puzzle pieces that make up the earths surface?
tectonic plates
What makes an earthquake to create a volcano that make it erupt?
the moving of the tectonic plates which makes the earths surface unstable which then causes earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
How many primary tectonic plates make up the surface of Earth?
seven plates
What do you call the moving irregularly shape slabs that make up the Earths lithosphere?
Tectonic plates.

Do tectonic plates make caves?
Caves are formed in many ways but mostly by chemical weathering of the surface rock. Tectonic plates on the other hand are huge slabs of rock that form the Earth's crust. Caves are not formed by tectonic plates, think of caves as tiny boreholes in the very surface of a tectonic plate. I agree
How earthquakes have changed the surface and atmosphere of the earth over millions of years?
EARTHQUAKES have changes the earth in many ways. The folding and faulting of the earth crust have left big cracks in the earths crust. The folding and faulting only happen on the tectonic boundaries. TECTONIC BOUNDARIES: The plates that make up the earths contents.
Is volcanic eruption a natural change?
Yes it is. Volcanic eruptions are the product of certain types of the earths tectonic plate interaction. The tectonic plates make up the earth.
The is broken up into tectonic plates which make up the hard and rigid surface of the Earth.?
it's a lithosphere
