When is earths Crust destroyed?
The Earth's crust is destroyed when subduction occurs.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at a sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at the sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
Where do subduction's occur?
Where crust is destroyed
Can the oceanic crust be destroyed?
Subduction
When Crust is destroyed.?
The Earth's crust is destroyed when subduction occurs.
When is earths Crust destroyed?
The Earth's crust is destroyed when subduction occurs.
Where is Ocean crust being destroyed?
At subduction zones along convergent plate boundaries.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at a sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
Is the crust formed or destroyed at the sliding boundary?
At convergent boundaries are boundaries the crust is destroyed by subduction of oceanic crust underneath continental crust or other oceanic crust.
When is crust neither formed or destroyed?
Crust is neither formed nor destroyed when the rate of crust formation at mid-ocean ridges equals the rate of crust destruction at subduction zones. This balance is known as isostasy and helps maintain the overall thickness of the Earth's crust.
Crust is destroyed near?
Crust is destroyed at the convergent plate boundaries in Earth. In between the oceanic and continental plates, the subduction of the denser oceanic crust takes place.
Why is oceanic crust younger than the continental crust?
oceanic crust is constantly being subducted and replaced with new material at places like the mid Atlantic ridge.
Where do subduction's occur?
Where crust is destroyed
Can the oceanic crust be destroyed?
Subduction
Is crust being destroyed or created?
near ocean trenches.
Where is old seafloor destroyed?
Oceanic crust isn't destroyed because it's old; it is, in fact, destroyed due to destructive plate boundaries. This is where a continental plate and an oceanic plate move towards each other. As the oceanic crust is denser, it is pushed under the continental plate. Here it is forced into the mantle of the earth, where it is destroyed due to heat and convection currents.
