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.
The theory of plate tectonics helps to explain what?
The theory of plate tectonics helps to explain how earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur.
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.
What does the theory of plate tectonics suggest about the creation of deep-sea trenches?
The theory of plate tectonics suggests that deep-sea trenches are formed at subduction zones where one tectonic plate slides beneath another. This process occurs due to the movement of the Earth's lithosphere, leading to the formation of these deep topographic features.
Why do plate tectonics occur?
i do not think anyone knows in the whole world then...come really that's why they invented this site
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.
What are the methods scientists use today to test plate tectonics?
Seismographs, etc.
Why do mountains occur along side of the red sea?
Due to plate tectonics.
Most volcano's occur?
Where the plate of the earth collide and pull apart. (If you don't know what I mean by plates of the earth Wikipedia plate tectonics) The only other places volcanoes occur is above hot spots (hot spots are also explained on the plate tectonics Wikipedia page)
How do volcanoes help plate tectonics?
Volcanoes don't help plate tectonics; volcanoes are the result of plate tectonics.
What is The theory that describes large scales movements of the lithosphere called?
Plate tectonics
Does mars have a asthenosphere?
Mars does not have an asthenosphere like Earth. The asthenosphere is a layer in Earth's upper mantle that is semi-fluid and allows for plate tectonics to occur. Mars does not have active plate tectonics, so it does not have a comparable asthenosphere.
Where do volcanoes and earthquakes happen?
Earthquakes occur along the edge of the oceanic and contiential plates.
Which of geologic processes formed most of californias nonmetalic mineral resources?
plate tectonics
Does seismologic evidence support plate tectonics?
yes it represets plate tectonics
Instrument used in studying plate tectonics?
instruments used in plate tectonics?
