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 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 moves outward from the source of an earthquake?
Seismic waves move outward from the source of an earthquake. These waves carry the energy released during the earthquake and can cause shaking and damage as they propagate through the Earth's crust.
How does the mantle crust and core interact?
The mantle is a layer of rock below the Earth's crust that moves due to convection currents caused by heat from the core. The core is the Earth's innermost layer made of iron and nickel. The mantle interacts with the crust through tectonic plate movements that can cause earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and the formation of mountain ranges.
What effect does convection currents in the upper mantle have on the crust?
Convection currents in the mantle create plate tectonics.
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 does an earthquake move?
An earthquake moves due to the plates under the Earth's crust moving
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
Does the Earth's crust move through the oceans?
In a sense, yes. The oceans lay on top of the crust. As the crust moves on top of the mantle at a speed roughly equivalent to the rate of fingernail growth, the ocean gets out of the way.
What is the word that goes with this definition the crust and the outermost layer of the mantle that moves are?
the lithosphere.
What happens to the earth's crust moves suddenly to a fault?
A sudden movement of the Earth's crust is called an earthquake.
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
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 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 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.
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
