How does the movement of the old and the new crust move in seafloor spreading?
In seafloor spreading, the old crust moves away from the mid-ocean ridge as new crust forms through volcanic activity. This movement is driven by the process of mantle convection, where hotter and less dense material rises at the ridge, pushing the tectonic plates apart. As new crust forms at the ridge, it gradually moves away from the ridge as more magma is added, creating a conveyor belt-like system of crustal movement.
Match the structure in column 1 to the characteristics in column 2 a moho barrier thinnest layer b oceanic crust layer that moves the crust c upper mantle located near the outer core d?
Moho barrier: Top of mantleOceanic crust: Thinnest layerUpper mantle: Moves the crustLower mantle: Borders liquid core
How does the age of oceanic crust compare to the age of continental crust?
Oceanic crust is generally younger than continental crust. Oceanic crust is continuously formed at mid-ocean ridges through volcanic activity and then gradually moves away from the ridge, undergoing processes that make it relatively young compared to the older continental crust.
What happens at a destructive margin?
At a destructive margin, also known as a convergent boundary, two tectonic plates collide. One plate is usually forced beneath the other in a process called subduction. This can result in the formation of deep ocean trenches, volcanic arcs, and earthquakes.
How the crust of the Earth moves?

What happens when the earths crust moves?
erosion
What moves the Earth's crust?
Convection currents.
What moves earth crust?

What moves on a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The crust moves on a plastic like layer of the mantle.
What moves a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The crust moves on a plastic like layer of the mantle.
Does the crust of the earth move?
The crust moves like globe, for example. you know how there is rings around it? that will be the crust and the ball will be the mantle. Spin the rings, not the globe. the crust moves AROUND the mantle
A piece of the earth's crust that moves around?
plates
What layer of earth moves the crust?
moho barrier?
What happens to the earth's crust moves suddenly to a fault?
A sudden movement of the Earth's crust is called an earthquake.
What is broken into 30 sections and moves around the asthenosphere?
Crust
