What was an idea used to promote the theory of plate tectonics?
Continental Drift. All of the land masses appear to be able to fit into one large land mass known as Pangaea.
Describe the theory of plate tectonics?
The theory of plate tectonics is that all the continents were once together in a land mass called Pangea and that plate tectonics(which means the earth moved ex earthquakes) moved the continents to the way they are today
What is an example of a land mass?
An example of a land mass is a continent or a country. Even maybe a very large island.
What was earths land mass called when it was one single land mass?
Pangaea
What plate boundary is in the Himalayan mountains?
The Himalayas are found at a convergent plate boundary also known as a subduction zone where one plate slips under the other driving the land mass up.
What is a large land of mass?
A tectonic plate. When they move, they cancreate earthquakes!
What is a large moving mass of land?
A tectonic plate. When they move, they cancreate earthquakes!
What is the possible connection between the constant processes of plate tectonics and natural selection?
Plate tectonic can lead to the isolation of continental or island land masses where the processes of natural selection result in life forms unique to that land mass. This is because competition is not possible between the populations of a isolated land mass and the rest of the Earth's population.
Why is it that when a quake happens it is usually on the Pacific Plate and not the Atlantic Plate?
81% of earthquakes happen on the Pacific Plate. This area is much more active than the Atlantic Plate because it spans a much bigger area of land and ocean mass.
How were mountains build?
Due to the movement of the plate tectonics land mass will start to build up and mountains will build up.

What type of plate collision is producing the Himalayas?
The Himalayas are found at a convergent plate boundary also known as a subduction zone where one plate slips under the other driving the land mass up.

What is the land mass of Gliese 581?
Not sure what you mean with "land mass". It is a star, therefore it won't have land. Total mass is estimated to be 0.31 times the mass of the Sun (according to information in the Wikipedia).Not sure what you mean with "land mass". It is a star, therefore it won't have land.
