What else can I help you with?
What are the 2 types of mantle?
the upper mantle(lithosphere)and the lower mantle(mesosphere)
Name the two types of lithospheric plates?
There are two types of lithosphere: the oceanic lithosphere and the continental lithosphere. The oceanic lithosphere exists in the ocean basins while the continental lithosphere exists in the continental crust.
What types of weather do most collisions occur?
Freeze rain
What is the name of the outerlayer of the lithosphere?
The crust is the outer layer of the lithosphere.
What two types of rocks make up the lithosphere?
The lithosphere is primarily made up of two types of rocks: igneous and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks form from the cooling and solidification of magma, while metamorphic rocks are rocks that have undergone a change in texture and composition due to heat and pressure.
Which types of lithosphere are colliding at convergent boundaries.?
continent-continent collisions
Which types of lithosphere are colliding at a convergent boundary?
At a convergent boundary, two lithospheric plates are colliding. This collision can involve oceanic lithosphere converging with either oceanic or continental lithosphere, or continental lithosphere converging with continental lithosphere. The type of lithosphere involved in the collision influences the resulting geological features, such as subduction zones or mountain ranges.
What types of lithosphere are colliding to produce the Andes mountains?
collision
Which types of lithosphere are colliding at the convergent boundary?
Conteinent-Conteinent boundery
What happens in an inelastic collision and how does it differ from other types of collisions?
In an inelastic collision, kinetic energy is not conserved, and some of the energy is transformed into other forms such as heat or sound. This differs from elastic collisions, where kinetic energy is conserved and the objects bounce off each other without losing energy. In inelastic collisions, the objects stick together after colliding.
Which types of collisions are the deadliest?
Head-on collisions are usually the most fatal ones.
What are the 2 types of mantle?
the upper mantle(lithosphere)and the lower mantle(mesosphere)
Name the two types of lithospheric plates?
There are two types of lithosphere: the oceanic lithosphere and the continental lithosphere. The oceanic lithosphere exists in the ocean basins while the continental lithosphere exists in the continental crust.
Examples of where the three types of plate movements occur?
Divergent boundary: Mid-Atlantic Ridge where plates move apart, creating new oceanic crust. Convergent boundary: Andes Mountains formed by the South American Plate colliding with the Nazca Plate. Transform boundary: San Andreas Fault in California where the Pacific Plate slides past the North American Plate horizontally.
What the lithosphere contains?
Earth contains a lithosphere that contains the crust and the mantle. There are two types of lithospheres on earth which are the oceanic and the continental.
What types of weather do most collisions occur?
Freeze rain
What types of weather does most collisions occur?
icy pavement
