What evidence leads astronomers to believe that Venus is geologically young?
Astronomers believe Venus is geologically young because it lacks significant impact craters compared to other planets. This suggests that its surface has been recently resurfaced by volcanic activity, which erases older impact features. Additionally, Venus's lack of tectonic plate movements and volcanic activity may indicate a relatively recent geological history.
Which planet in the solar system shows signs of tectonic plate motion?
Mars has evidence of past tectonic activity, such as fault lines and large-scale volcanic features. This suggests that tectonic plate motion may have occurred on Mars in the past.
Why is the lithosphere moving?
as it is concentrated on the crust. and the crust is moving due to crustal activity/tectonic activity.
Why doesn't Ireland have volcanoes?
Ireland has volcanoes. However there are no active ones. They are all extinct. There is lots of evidence of volcanic activity, most notably the Giants Causeway. It was created by volcanic activity millions of years ago.
Does ganymede shows evidence of ancient plate tectonics?
Yes, Ganymede shows evidence of ancient plate tectonics, including grooved terrain that may be related to the movement of tectonic plates. This suggests that Ganymede's icy surface has experienced significant geological activity in the past.

Do astronomers study tectonic plates?
No, astronomers study space. Just remember that the prefix: astro-means space. Geologists study the earth, including tectonic plates.
Mars have any crustal activity?
Mars does not currently have tectonic plate movement or volcanic activity like Earth. However, there is evidence of ancient volcanoes and past tectonic activity on Mars, as seen in features such as Olympus Mons, the largest volcano in the solar system, and Valles Marineris, a vast canyon system.

Mars has evidence of past tectonic activity, such as fault lines and large-scale volcanic features. This suggests that tectonic plate motion may have occurred on Mars in the past.
What is the result of tectonic activity?
Tectonic activity has a number of consequences, which include continental drift, earthquakes, and volcanoes.
Is there any evidence of tectonic plate activity on Jupiter?
No. Jupiter is a gas giant with a very deep and dense atmosphere. We have no information about a solid surface, if it has one.
How does a tectonic activity help make a rejuvenated river?
Rejuvenated rivers are found where the land is raise by tectonic activity.
What is formed by tectanic activity?
Tectonic activity, such as that created by the movement of tectonic plates, can create mountains and deep sea rifts, as well as earthquakes.
What countries have no tectonic activity?
Southern Nations
How sea floor spreading provide evidence for tectonic plates?
by the plate tectonic and the ocean bridges
What is the tectonics?
It is that convection currents cause tectonic activity
Why is the lithosphere moving?
as it is concentrated on the crust. and the crust is moving due to crustal activity/tectonic activity.
