What else can I help you with?
Does the moon have plate tectonics?
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.
All of the following are evidence supporting plate tectonics except for A changes in the moon's orbit to shifting plates B hot spots forming island chains C measurement of plate motion D evidenc?
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.
How do volcanoes help plate tectonics?
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.
Is plate tectonics the main lines of evidence are fossils climate clues rock and the theory of seafloor spreading?
Yes, plate tectonics is supported by various lines of evidence such as fossils showing similar species on different continents, climate clues like ancient glaciers in tropical regions, rock formations matching across continents, and the theory of seafloor spreading confirmed by magnetic striping on the ocean floor. These pieces of evidence collectively support the concept of plate tectonics and the movement of Earth's lithosphere.
What are the three lines of evidence for Plate Tectonics?
The three lines of evidence for Plate Tectonics are: 1) the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes along plate boundaries, 2) the matching shapes of continents on opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean, known as continental drift, and 3) the patterns of magnetic striping on the ocean floor that provide evidence of seafloor spreading.
Does plate tectonics occur on venus?
No. Plate tectonics are not possible on Venus because the crust is too thick and the upper mantle is not softened by water.
Does seismologic evidence support plate tectonics?
yes it represets plate tectonics
Does Venus have plate tectonics?
Well, aren't you curious about our neighbor Venus? Venus does not have plate tectonics like Earth does. Instead, Venus has a different kind of activity that causes its surface to shift over time. Always remember, every planet has its own unique way of doing things - just like each one of us.
What is evidence for plate tectonics?
Coriolis effect.
Is volcanic activity on Venus caused by plate tectonics?
No. Scientists believe that the crust of Venus is too thick to support plate tectonics. Volcanic activity is likely driven by hot spots.
What are some evidence of plate tectonics?
The ring of fire.
Does the moon have plate tectonics?
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.
What forms of evidence were used to help gather evidence for the existence of pangaea?
Plate tectonics led to the theory of Pangaea.
Which of these does NOT provide some evidence for plate tectonics?
We don't answer questions from printed/copyrighted materials.
What are some features of the ocean floor that provide evidence for plate tectonics?
they found fossils
All of the following are evidence supporting plate tectonics except for A changes in the moon's orbit to shifting plates B hot spots forming island chains C measurement of plate motion D evidenc?
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.
What geographical features provide evidence for 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.
