Earth’s Materials and Processes-Part 9 Plate Tectonics and Continental Drift Plate Tectonics Theory that the outer rigid layer of the earth (the lithosphere) is divided into a couple of dozen "plates" that move around across the earth's surface relative to each other. Plates ‘float’ and m...
This lesson provides a definition of plate tectonics, explains the theory of plate tectonics, and what phenomena in the natural world that the theory explains. Updated: 11/21/2023 Plate Tectonics: Definition Plate tectonics is the premier theory scientists use to explain the geology of how maj...
Plate tectonics, theory dealing with the dynamics of Earth’s outer shell that revolutionized Earth sciences by providing a uniform context for understanding mountain-building processes, volcanoes, and earthquakes as well as the evolution of Earth’s sur

B。解析:在板块构造学说(Plate tectonics theory)被广泛接受之前,大陆漂移学说(Continental drift theory)有一些相似的想法。大陆漂移学说认为大陆在移动,这为板块构造学说奠定了一定的基础。大爆炸理论(Big Bang theory)是关于宇宙起源的;相对论(Theory of relativity)主要是爱因斯坦提出的关于时空等的理论;病菌学说(...
