Plate movements on Earth’s crust create (blank)?

Geography

Kitty [74]3 years ago

Answer:

- Plate movements on Earth’s crust create stress.

- This adds energy to the crust, which then bends and breaks, forming mountains and geological basins.

Explanation:

    The tectonic plates literally float over the magma. Thus, what makes the tectonic plates move is precisely the movement of this magma! And this movement does not happen at all, but in a cyclical variation, which we call Earth convection currents or cells.

    The movement of tectonic plates moving over the asthenosphere (pasty part) interacting over time in a geodynamic process that results in the origin of mountains and geological basins, causing seismic quakes (earthquakes and tidal wave), volcanism, magmatism and other geological events (formation of mountain ranges and underwater pits) all due to these plate movements.

Mountains and high places such as cliffs in front of oceans could be good for defense because you have the high ground and an easier to attack ships.
Ground that is very fertile and has enough access to sun could prove very good to plant crops and make farms.
Rivers and lakes could come off of a mountain so being on lower ground could be good to provide water for yourselves and your crops or animals that are used for food.
Idaho had good soil for potatoes and farming. Towns with lakes and hills would be good for water and farming and life with a family in general.
You would want to avoid rocky ground and mountains unless you wanted to protect yourself, so avoiding new england and also high places like colorado.

Explain the process of precipitation,evaporation, and condensation within the water cycle
andre [41]

evaporation is when a mass of water is hit by sunlight and some of it turns to a vapor. In the atmosphere, that vapor cools and the water molecules fuse with other water molecules, forming clouds. (condensation) When the clouds become full, the water precipitates onto land or into the ocean in the form of rain, sleet, snow or hail (precipitation).
