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.
Which theory views the earth's surface as composed of slowly moving plates?
Plate tectonics.
The activity of the earths moving plates is called?
The activity of the Earth's moving plates is called plate tectonics. It involves the movement and interaction of large sections of the Earth's lithosphere, resulting in phenomena such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and the formation of mountain ranges.
Two reasons understanding and knowledge of plate tectonics is important?
Plate tectonics explains the movements of the Earth's lithosphere, which is crucial for understanding natural phenomena like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Knowledge of plate tectonics helps predict and mitigate geohazards, safeguarding lives and property in at-risk areas.
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.
Are the plate tectonics constantly moving and when they do does it always cause an earthquake?
Plate tectonics are always moving! they usually do have something to do with earthquakes!
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.
Why did the frontier keep moving west?
plate tectonics
Samilarties and differences between volvano and plate tectonics?
Volcanos are mountains in which lava comes out and plate tectonics is the theory of plates moving.
What is the synonym for moving plates?
Plate and Plate Tectonics is th ebest answer
Why does plate tectonics take place?
because of the plates moving
How are the plate tectonics causing your earth to change?
they are always moving
Are plate tectonics moving a type of seismic activity?
YES.
The theory that the continents and sections of the lithosphere are moving?
plate tectonics.
What are the moving plates of the earth crust called?
They are called plate tectonics.
What causes an earthquake's vibrations?
The shifting of plate tectonics moving by eachother.
What other forces shaped the earth's crust?
slow moving plate tectonics
