Ok, so the movement of the continents changed location of land and sea, therefore changing the wind patterns and ocean currents, slowly changing climate globally. Also, as the continents continue to move, climates will also continue to change.

How a scientist would know to draw isochrons to connect basalt florws on land?
the data gathered from continental basalt flows allowed scientists to construct the geomagnetic time scale. Continental basalt flows were used to construct the geomagnetic time scale. long term changes in earth's magnetic field are called epochs. short term changes are called events :D
Knowing the average speed of earths plates helps scientists?
it helps the scientists to predict future changes.
What changes happen at the time as a result of this scientist work?
what changes happened at the time as a result of this scientists work
What are natural changes or movements that happen over millions of years inside or on the earth?
geologic processes
When analyzing data what do the scientists look for?
dramtick changes in the data and if the hipothisos is corect
Why do scientists measure the movements and changes in glaciers?
So they know how much the sea level is growing each year (due to Global Warming and Climate Change) and how fast it moves [each year] because of that.
Which term for the vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer due to changes in density?
Convection currents are the vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer due to changes in density.
What is it meant by the term evolution?
A species (like man) slowly changes over time as it adapts. Some theorize we evolved from primates. That is evolution.
What is the term for the vertical circular movements of that transfer energy due to changes in density?
Convection currents are vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer energy due to changes in density.

What two scientists realized that geologic changes are cyclic what two scientists?
Hutton and Lyee
What is the term for the vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer energy due to changes in density?
Convection currents are vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer energy due to changes in density.
What is the study of crustal changes caused by movements of large blocks beneath the crust?
The study of crustal changes caused by movements of large blocks beneath the crust is called plate tectonics :)
What is the term vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer energy due to changes in density?
Convection currents are vertical circular movements of fluids that transfer energy due to changes in density.
Does muscle length change during isometric movements?
No, the length of the muscle fibers does not change. In isotonic movements is when the length changes.
Did reform movements lay the groundwork for constitutional changes?
Reform movements laid the groundwork for constitutional changes. The reformists lobbied, protested, and gave lectures. People eventually listened and change occurred.
How do scientists use the study of plate tectonics to understand the history of Earth's surface and its future changes?
Scientists use plate tectonics to understand the history of Earth's surface by studying how the plates have shifted and collided over time. By studying past plate movements, scientists can reconstruct Earth's past geography and climate. They can also predict future plate movements and use this information to forecast how Earth's surface will continue to change in the future. For example, by studying the current movement of the Pacific Plate and other plates, scientists can predict the future movement of the plates and how this may affect volcanism and earthquakes in the region.
