Rocks crack and shift when from moving plates because too great?
Rocks
What are the main causes of crack growth in rocks overtime?
weathering and plant growth growing through and eventually causing a crack in the rock
What process causes rocks to crack?
heat and extreme pressure. also water freezing and melting.
How do fossils provide evidence for moving plates?
Their evidence comes from rocks at earths surface.
What kind of weathering causes repeated expanding due to the heat and contracting due to cold strains the rocks and causes them to crack?
Thermal expansion causes repeated expansion and contraction within the rock. This repeated stress breaks bonds and eventually causes the rock to crack. Thermal expansion is classified as a type of physical or mechanical weathering.

Why do rocks and crustal plates move?

What is an earthquake made of?
An earth quake occures when the underground plates that are near the center of the earth come together, like 2 over-lap, the friction will cause heat, and also when the 2 over-lap, they can crack, which then causes the earth quake. The size of the earth quake all depends on the size of the crack.
