What phenomenon is responsible for moving sedimentary and metamorphic rock into the Earth's interior?
Plate Tectonics.
What area extends from New Zealand to chile?
The Pacific Ocean and in tectonics, the Pacific Plate.
Is the Mojave Desert a result of plate tectonics?
Indirectly, yes. Both the Coastal Mountains and the Sierra Nevada Mountains were forced up by plate tectonics. These mountains block Pacific moisture from moving inland causing a rain shadow desert on the leeward side.
How do plate tectonics provide fertile soils ore deposits and fossil fuels?
hfh
What is Beached Viking Funeral Ships?
components incorporated into the fossil record that are moved by plate tectonics.
What is The theory that describes large scales movements of the lithosphere called?
Plate tectonics
How do volcanoes help plate tectonics?

Which of geologic processes formed most of californias nonmetalic mineral resources?
plate tectonics
Instrument used in studying plate tectonics?
instruments used in plate tectonics?
Does seismologic evidence support plate tectonics?
yes it represets plate tectonics
What new led to the theory of plate tectonics?
Continental drift, sea floor spreading, glacial striation, jigsaw fit of the continents, geological matches on different contintents (such as type of rock or fossil found) ,earthquakes, and volcanoes led to the theory of plate tectonics.
Is plate tectonics the plural form of plate tectonics?
Yes, the singular form is normally plate tectonic or tectonic plate so the plural would be plate tectonics or tectonic plates. Dumb crap.
Fossil evidence rocks and the shape of continents provide support for the theory of?
plate tectonics, which explains the movement of Earth's outer shell. Fossil remains on separate continents that were once part of the same landmass suggest that continents were once connected and have since drifted apart. The shape of continents also fits together like a puzzle, supporting the idea of continental drift and plate tectonics.
What is the branch of geology know for plate tectonics?
the branch of geology for plate tectonics is asthenosphere.
How are volanoes and the process of plate tectonics related?
how are volcanoes and the process of plate tectonics related
