What is a slow motion of huge blocks ofearths crust is called?

This phenomenon is called tectonic plate movement. It occurs when large segments of the Earth's crust, known as tectonic plates, slowly shift and move over time. These movements can result in various geological events such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation.


What percent of Earths crust do silicates make up?

Silicates make up about 90% of Earth's crust. These minerals are composed of silicon and oxygen, along with other elements like aluminum, iron, calcium, and magnesium. Silicate minerals are the building blocks of most rocks on Earth's surface.


What is the magnetism of the earth's crust?

Earth's magnetic field is not in its crust. It passes through the crust, but it is generated by the differential motion of the inner and outer core. The core is mostly iron and nickel. This creates huge dynamo and generates our magnetosphere.


What is earths moon made of?

The moon is a huge ball of rock, chemically similar to the rocks of the Earth's crust and mantle. It does not have a core of nickel and iron, unlike the Earth.


Where could you find granite?

Granite is commonly found in areas with mountain ranges and where tectonic plates meet, such as in the Himalayas, Rocky Mountains, and Andes. It is also commonly quarried in countries like Brazil, India, and China.


What is the name given to huge pieces of earths crust?

The huge pieces of Earth's crust are called tectonic plates. These plates float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath them and are responsible for various geological activities, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountain ranges. The movement and interaction of these plates shape the Earth's surface over geological time.


Difference between fault block mountains and folded mountains?

Fault mountains are formed when rocks crack down due to lines of weakness in the earths crust. This cause huge blocks to move forming block mountains. Fold mountains are formed when land is folded into wave like shapes because of the tectonic movements underneath the earth crust.

Mountains are made by movements in earths?

Yes! Amazing isn't it! Mountains are formed by slow but gigantic movements of the earths crust. The Earth's crust is made up of 6 huge slabs called plates, which fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. When to slabs of the earth's crust smash into each other the land can be pushed upwards, forming mountains. Many of the greatest mountain ranges of the world have formed because of enormous collisions between continents.


What is the most abundant element in Earths continental crust by weight is?

oxygen is the most abundent element present i n the earth crust by weight.Because it makes covelent bond with silicon to form silicates ,which react with other minoer elements of the earth to foem a huge number of silicate minerals.
