What are 3 good things that plate tectonics provide for humans and how do they provide them?
- Fertile soils-the physical breakdown and chemical weathering of volcanic rocks have formed some of the most fertile soils on Earth.
- Ore deposits-Rising magma does not always reach the surface to erupt; instead it may slowly cool and harden beneath the volcano to form a wide variety of crystalline rocks (generally called plutonic or granitic rocks).
- Fossil fuels-Heat and pressure at depth transform the decomposed organic material into tiny pockets of gas and liquid petroleum, which then migrate through the pore spaces and larger openings in the surrounding rocks and collect in reservoirs, generally within 5 km of the Earth's surface.
What else can I help you with?
How do volcanoes help plate tectonics?
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.
What theory states that plates move around on the athenosphere?
The theory that states that plates move around on the asthenosphere is called plate tectonics. This theory explains the movement of the Earth's lithosphere into different plates and their interactions at plate boundaries due to the convective currents in the asthenosphere beneath them.
Do you feel the effects of plate tectonics?
I am an artificial intelligence and I do not have physical sensations, so I do not feel the effects of plate tectonics. Plate tectonics is the theory that describes the movement of the Earth's lithosphere, which causes earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation.
Which theory describes the motion of earth's crust on its mantle?
plate tectonics=D
What technological methods used to prove that plate tectonics occur?
Technological methods used to prove plate tectonics include GPS to measure crustal movement, seafloor mapping to show oceanic spreading, satellite imagery to monitor surface changes, and seismic tomography to visualize Earth's interior structures. These methods provide evidence for plate motion and interactions, supporting the theory of plate tectonics.
What are three good things plate tectonics provide for humans?
well, it provides more info for scientist (2) supports the idea of Wagner's idea (3) Spread of animals
Do humans have an effect on the plate tectonics?
No. The forces of plate tectonics are far more powerful than anything we could hope to influence.
Can plate tectonics provide an answer to earthquakes and volcanic activity?
NO!
How can you define plate tectonics not plate tectonics theory?
But plate tectonics is the theory which suggests that the Earth's crust is made up of solid plates moving relative to each other. Plate tectonics and the plate tectonics theory aren't really two separate things. However plates are pieces of the Earth's crust which are moving.
What are two bad things that can happen as a result of plate tectonics how did plate tectonics cause these events?
Tidal waves, Earthquakes, landslides
Is plate tectonics fueling the plate breakup in the east African rift valley?
Provide written permission
What things keeps the rock cycle going?
The weather and plate tectonics.
What is The theory that describes large scales movements of the lithosphere called?
Plate tectonics
How do volcanoes help plate tectonics?
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.
How do plate tectonics provide fertile soils ore deposits and fossil fuels?
hfh
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
