Tectonic plates
The tectonic plates are located above the mantle, which includes the crust. 🥹✌️
What type of currents in the mantle help move tectonic plates?
Convection Currents
What technology do scientists use to track tectonic plate movement???
Satellites and GPS measuring devices.
What is mr vaccarella's first name
You probs got it right
What is algae considered in the food chain
Producers
What are the different tectonic boundaries
Divergent, Convergent, Transform.
Approximately how many centimetres can tectonic plates move each year?
2-15 cm
How do earthquakes provide evidence that tectonic plates are moving?
Earthquakes occur when stress builds up and rocks suddenly slip along faults as tectonic plates interact.
what is Mr nguyens first name

Which system is the kidney apart of?
The excretory system
What does convergent collisons cause???
New mountain ranges, and when magma is exposed, volcanoes are formed.
What happens to hot magma when it cools and becomes denser?
It sinks
Name 2 natural different evidences of tectonic movement?
Earthquakes and tsunamis

How can they slide above the upper part of the mantle??
Due to their unique compostion, the lightweight material lets it float
Why do some tectonic plates move faster then others
Depends on the different forces acting on them.
How do scientists use satellite images to detect tectonic plate movement?
They compare images and measurements taken over time to see how Earth's surface has shifted.
What is Mr nguyen's thrid and final first name
dimitri
What is accuracy, validity and reliablity
Accuracy: How close a result is to the true data
Validity: How well an experiment measures the topic
Reliability: How consistent is your data
What is the super continebt name
pangea
How does convection currents actually move the plates?
Magma causes mantle material to rise. As it cools, it becomes denser and sinks, creating currents that help move the plates.
how much money does it take to supervise over tectonic movement?
$90 million to $150 million annually
