【题目】B Mountains are formed when tectonic(构造的) plates collide(碰撞) with each other. Most mountains are part of the ranges(山脉). Mountains are gradually eaten away by rivers and weather conditions even though the erosion() takes place very slowly.What is the Highest Unclimbed Mountain?
What are the types of tectonic plates?Puzzle Pieces:After discovering North and South America, scientists began to wonder why it seemed some of the continents looked like the fit together. After much theorizing, geological study, and matching rock layers across the world, they realized the pieces...
Traditionally, submerged plates have been discovered where two tectonic plates meet and one subducts beneath the other into the Earth's interior. However, the newly found anomalies defy these expectations. According to current theories about plate tectonics, there should not be subducted plate material...

**问题一:What will happen when tectonic plates meet each other?** 文章第一段提到:Tectonic-plates...don't lock together. They move around slowly and crash into one another...That process is called subduction (俯冲). Subduction zones are for all sorts of geological activities, including earthq...
Part of the reason that forecasting earthquakes is so difficult comes from the fact that we don't know much about the process that causes them: plate tectonics. The Earth's crust is made up of several moving tectonic plates. Scientists can only guess, however,about when and how the process...

Tectonic Plates are responsible for shaping the earth's crust. Every continent formed rises above the sea due to plate tectonics. It causes earthquakes, vol...
