Plate boundary zones:broad belts in which boundaries are not well defined and the effects of plate interaction are unclear. Plate Boundary Types Divergent boundary (Constructive) Occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, lava spews from long fissures and geys...
What are three types of tectonic plate boundaries? What role does the asthenosphere play in plate tectonics? Explain whether there is always a boundary between oceanic plates and continental plates. Which layer of the Earth are the lithosphere and asthenosphere found?
Tectonic plates: Our planet is divided into seven major tectonic plates and many minor ones. They are part of the Earth's lithosphere, or outer layer. The plates are in constant motion with each other and their edges meet at what is known as plate boundaries. It is in these boundaries wh...
The Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. What plate tectonic activity led to the formation of Mount Everest? A. Convergence of the Indian and Eurasian plates B. Divergence of the African and South American plates C. Convergence of the North American and Pacific plates D. ...
B. Tectonic plate movement. C. Heavy rain. D. Strong winds. 相关知识点: 试题来源: 解析 B。解析:文章中明确提到“An earthquake occurs when there is a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust. This energy is usually caused by the movement of tectonic plates.”,即地震通常是由地壳中...
Sitting before a plate of zongzi,the boy is at a complete loss of how to unwrap them and eventually turns to a book for instructions.The picture is trying to convince us of a fact that many of the young are losing their basic hands-on ability in everyday life. 有趣的图片它是! 坐在...
A plate boundary is a location where two tectonic plates meet. There are three different types of tectonic plate boundaries, which are defined by the relative motion of each plate. The three types of plate boundaries are divergent, convergent, and transform. These plate boundaries can occur both...
. Hot magma flows up at a point where a tectonic plate has been stretched thin.5、What is the professor’s opinion of the two main hypotheses he presents? . Neither hypothesis can explain the formation of the Hawaiian Islands. . Each hypothesis accounts for some, but not all volcanic ...
Hills are formed by the same type of tectonic activity that forms mountains. This activity, in which rocks shift upward due to colliding tectonic plates, is called faulting. Over long periods of time, faulting can turn hills into mountains. Mountains can also become hills over time, due to ...
