Fault.
What else can I help you with?
A crack in the earths crust caused by tectonic plate movement is called a?
Fault.
What are earthquakes tsunamis and volcano caused by?
They are all caused by the Earths The Earths Tectonic PLates. e.g When there is a crack or fracture in a tectonic plate the pressure slowley builds up until it if released. This can cause tsunamis if the plate is underwater or an earthquake if it is not.
Most geologists think that the movement of earths plates caused by?
Geologists have hypothesized that the movement of tectonic plates is related to convection currents in the earth's mantle. Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat.
What do the yellow arrows in this illustration represent in the earths core?
movement of earth's tectonic plates
An earthquake is a shaking caused by the sudden movement of the earths crust?
True((;
A crack in the earths crust caused by tectonic plate movement is called a?
Fault.
What is a sudden shaking of the earths crust caused by the movement of tectonic plates?
EARTHQUAKE
What causes volcanoes and earthquacks?
Volcanoes are caused by the rising of magma in the earths mantle and earthquakes are caused by the colliding of the earths tectonic plates against one another.

What is directly linked to heat convection within earths interior?
Tectonic Plate Movement
What do the yellow arrows in this illustration represent in the earths core?
movement of earth's tectonic plates
When tectonic plates move and slip what are they called in earths crush?
They are called earthquakes.
Ost geologists thinks that the movement of earths plates is caused by?
Most geologists believe that the movement of the Earth's plates is caused by the process of convection currents in the mantle. These currents are driven by the heat generated from the core of the Earth, which causes the molten rock in the mantle to move in circular patterns, leading to the movement of the tectonic plates.
What causes volcanoes to erupt under earths surface?
mostly earthquakes or plate tectonic movement.
Movement along the earths surface caused by an earthquake?
Collide
