The evidence is that on one continent... lets say North America half of a dinosaur fossil was found and the other half lets say was on Africa well that's weird. its just like they split

Evidence for plate tectonics include the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes along plate boundaries, the alignment of rock types and fossils across continents, magnetic striping on the ocean floor, and the movement of continents recorded through GPS measurements.

Is there evidence of plate tectonics on Venus?

There is no conclusive evidence of plate tectonics on Venus. Although Venus does have tectonic features such as fractures and faults, they do not show the same pattern of movement and subduction observed on Earth. Additionally, Venus lacks evidence of large-scale crustal recycling associated with plate tectonics.


What are the three lines of evidence for Plate Tectonics?

The three lines of evidence for Plate Tectonics are: 1) the distribution of earthquakes and volcanoes along plate boundaries, 2) the matching shapes of continents on opposite sides of the Atlantic Ocean, known as continental drift, and 3) the patterns of magnetic striping on the ocean floor that provide evidence of seafloor spreading.

All of the following are evidence supporting plate tectonics except for A changes in the moon's orbit to shifting plates B hot spots forming island chains C measurement of plate motion D evidenc?

Changes in the moon's orbit do not support plate tectonics. However, evidence such as hot spots forming island chains, measurement of plate motion, and other geological evidence like seafloor spreading and the distribution of fossils support the theory of plate tectonics.


What geographical features provide evidence for plate tectonics?

Submarine mountain ranges, like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and deep oceanic trenches, such as the Mariana Trench, are evidence for plate tectonics. Earthquakes and volcanic activity along plate boundaries also support the theory of plate movement. Additionally, the distribution of rock types, fossils, and ancient climate indicators across continents provide further evidence for plate tectonics.


Is there any evidence that plate tectonics operate on the moon?

No. The only object other than Earth that shows evidence of processes similar to plate tetonics is Jupiters 4th largest moon, Europa.
