Plate Movement
Does an earthquake happen because of plate movement or does plate movement happen because of an earthquake?
Earthquakes happen because of plate movement.
How is a sedimentary rock formed?
Sedimentary rock is formed when sediment is compacted and cemented.
What causes a chemical reaction?
Different molecules interacting with one another.
What causes evaporation to happen?
The air around the water is hotter than the water.

Why are fossils of species that once lived together found in different locations on Earth now?

How is igneous rock formed?
Igneous rock is made when magma cools.
Why can't you see individual atoms without special tools?
