What else can I help you with?
Does the crust of the earth move?
The crust moves like globe, for example. you know how there is rings around it? that will be the crust and the ball will be the mantle. Spin the rings, not the globe. the crust moves AROUND the mantle
What sections moves on a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The lithosphere, which includes the crust and uppermost part of the mantle, moves on a plastic-like layer of the mantle called the asthenosphere. This layer is partially molten and allows the lithospheric plates to move slowly over time due to convection currents.
What happens to the old oceanic crust as new molten material rises from the mantle?
The older oceanic crust moves away from the spreading center and is eventualy subducted back into the mantle.
What effect does convection currents in the upper mantle have on the crust?
Convection currents in the mantle create plate tectonics.
What type of earthquake wave moves through only crust and mantle?
The type of earthquake wave that moves only through the crust and mantle is called the S-wave (secondary wave). S-waves are slower than P-waves, cannot propagate through liquids like the outer core, and cause side-to-side shaking motion.
What moves on a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The crust moves on a plastic like layer of the mantle.
What moves a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The crust moves on a plastic like layer of the mantle.

How did Africa and south America separate?
are you stupid or what !?!?!?! its so easy every continent has a plate called plate tectonics crust and mantle crust and mantle yeah yeah you know what it is plate tecttonics WELL//;.//..// It moves 2 inchs a yeah
What is the word that goes with this definition the crust and the outermost layer of the mantle that moves are?
the lithosphere.
Describe the movement of the crust at a hotspot?
The crust moves in 1 direction at a hotspot due to the convection currents of the mantle
How is heat transfer in the earths mantle related to the movement of the earths crust?
Heat transfer in the Earth's mantle drives the movement of the Earth's crust through the process of convection. As mantle material heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, causing the overlying crust to move. At the same time, cooler mantle material sinks back down, completing the cycle of heat transfer and driving the continuous motion of tectonic plates.
What happens to old oceanic crust as new molten material from the mantle?
The older oceanic crust moves away from the spreading center and is eventualy subducted back into the mantle.
What happens to old oceanic crust as molten materials rises from the mantle?
The older oceanic crust moves away from the spreading center and is eventualy subducted back into the mantle.
What part of the earths mantle that flows and moves the plates of the earth?
Mantle plumes are in the mantle, BELOW the Earth's crust. The circulation of heat from the lower mantle to the upper mantle can cause "hot spots" in the overlying crust, heating the magma in the areas.
What sections moves on a plasticlike layer of the mantle?
The lithosphere, which includes the crust and uppermost part of the mantle, moves on a plastic-like layer of the mantle called the asthenosphere. This layer is partially molten and allows the lithospheric plates to move slowly over time due to convection currents.
Match the structure in column 1 to the characteristics in column 2 a moho barrier thinnest layer b oceanic crust layer that moves the crust c upper mantle located near the outer core d?
Moho barrier: Top of mantleOceanic crust: Thinnest layerUpper mantle: Moves the crustLower mantle: Borders liquid core
