How the movement of tectonic plates result in the formation of crustal features?
Magma is the molten rock below the crust, in the mantle. Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust.
How does the structure of the earth's surface result in an earthquake?
Its When Tectonic plates either collide Or Move Apart. Examples Of Tectonic Plates moving Together are mountains and volcanoes.
What happens as a result of the sudden shift between two tectonic plates s?
earthquake
What happens as a result of the sudden shift between two tectonic plates?
A sudden shift between two tectonic plates would result in an earthquake. If the earthquake was strong enough, and eneath the sea bed, the water would form very large waves going onto land, causing a tsunami.
What process is the result of a divergent plate boundary?
is formed at a divergent plate boundary
What do ocean trenches result from?
Movement of the tectonic plates.
Which phenomena does not result from the movement of tectonic plates?
Karst topography
Are earthquakes geologic in nature?
Yes. Earthquakes generally result from the movement of tectonic plates.
What is the result of movement between the tectonic plates in Mexico?
There are a few. Tectonic plates in Mexico have created volcanoes, mountains, and a canyon range that makes the grand canyon look like a crack in the pavement.
Are earthquakes a non renewable?
No earthquakes are not. They are not even considered resources as they cannot be used. They are simply the result of seismic waves across solid masses of land as a result of the displacement or movement between two or more tectonic plates.
What factors result in the forming of landscapes?
Weathering and erosion, tectonic plates movement and human intervention ( for example: farming, civilization)
What is a earthquake a result of?
An earthquake is a result of tectonic plates colliding.
What are the result if tectonic plates move?
An earthquake.
How the movement of tectonic plates result in the formation of crustal features?
Magma is the molten rock below the crust, in the mantle. Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust.
What can occur because of tectonic plates?
Tectonic plates can result in a variety of events when altered, however the main 4 are:EarthquakesLandslidesTidal WavesVolcanic Eruptions
What created the mountains?
Mountains are the result of the collision of tectonic plates.
What are most of the world's relief features a result of?
tectonic plates
