What else can I help you with?
Where do folds in the earths crust form?
along tectonic plate boundaries.
Are valcanos spread evenly around the world or are they concentrated in specific areas?
They're spread around the world... usually along the edges of tectonic plates.
What are earthquakes. How do they occur?
earthquakes happen when sections of the earths crust shift.These shifting parts called plates,are actually pieces of the crust floating on the hot molten interior of the earth. The majority of earthquakes happen along the edges of those plates,and along weak areas of the crust called fault zones
A break in the crust along which rock moves?
This is called a fault.== ==
Why are continents not fixed permanently in location on the earths crust?
The continents are embedded in the top side of crustal plates which float on the surface of the mantle. Convection currents in the mantle carry the plates around and the embedded continents travel along.
Where on earths surface is the sun hottest throughout the year?
A broad band along the equator is usually the hottest area of the earth throughout the year.
Where on the earths surface is the sun hottest throughout the year?
A broad band along the equator is usually the hottest area of the earth throughout the year.
Would you expect many earthquakes to happen along the ring of fire?
Actually i found the answer. A lot of earths plates are found there and they rub against each other a causing earthquakes.
Movement along the earths surface caused by an earthquake?
Collide
How far would you travel if you traveled around the world along the equator?
The Earths circumference at its widest point, the equator, is about 24,500 miles (off the top of my head)
Where is the earths temperature predictability warm year round?
Along the equator.
What percent of the earths volcanoes lie along the ring fire?
Most.
Where do folds in the earths crust form?
along tectonic plate boundaries.
Movement of earths crust along plate bound Aries produces what?
usually earthquakes because of the friction caused by the tectonic plates rubbing against each other. rs.com NOT ARIES......BOUNDARIES!!!!
Are the temperatures at all points along the earths equator the same?
maqbie , mabie not
What happens along a fault under the earths surface when an earthquake occurs?
it get weak
What happens along a fault beneath earths surface when earthquakes happen?
If the fault is responsible for the earthquake, there will be movement (displacement) along the fault.
