How fast do the pieces of the earth's crust move?
Very gradually
How does water move through the Earth's crust?
i will hump u1
Why do the large sections of Earth's crust move?
Large sections of Earth's crust move due to the constant motion of the tectonic plates that make up the Earth's surface. This movement is caused by the heat generated from the Earth's core, which drives convection currents in the mantle. As the currents move, they drag the overlying tectonic plates along with them, resulting in the motion of the Earth's crust.
What is the scientific name when plates in the Earth's crust shift and move?
continentual drift
Is magma the idea that the earth's crust is broken into plates that move on top of the mantle?
No, magma refers to molten rock beneath the Earth's surface. The idea that the Earth's crust is broken into plates that move on top of the mantle is known as plate tectonics. Plate tectonics explains the motion of Earth's lithosphere and how different landforms are shaped.
Why the crust move?
the earth's crust is made up of 7 rigid,irregularly shaped plates(slabs). these are called lithospheric plates. these plates move because of the molten magma under the earth's crust which move in a circular motion that's why the earth's crust moves and earthquakes occurs
When earthquake happen when these sections of earth crust move?
earthquakes happen when these sections of earths crust move
Why is earth's crust in constant motion?
Convection currents of heat underneath the earth's crust in the mantle (magma) cause the tectonic plates of the earth's crust to move.
Is the Earth's crust is in motion?
Convection currents of heat underneath the earth's crust in the mantle (magma) cause the tectonic plates of the earth's crust to move.
Why is the Earth's crust in constant in motion?
Convection currents of heat underneath the earth's crust in the mantle (magma) cause the tectonic plates of the earth's crust to move.
How does the convection currents cause te crust of the Earth to move?
Because the convection currents involve the Earth's crust.
What explains the movement of the Earth?
The earth's crust moves because the earth has tectonic plates that move because the magma under the earth's surface is constantly boiling. Since the water moves, it causes the earth's crust to move.
A place where pieces of earth's crust move is the?
Lithosphere.
What is a break in earth's crust along which portions of earth's crust move relative to one another called?
They are called fault lines.
How fast do the pieces of the earth's crust move?
Very gradually
What is a break in earth's crust which rocks move is called what?
A fault.
What makes the earth crust move?
The vibration of the techtonic plates. :)
