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

Geography
2 answers:
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.

How do scientists use ice to study ancient climates?
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

through glacial deposits and ice cores

Explanation:

Scientists use ice to study ancient climates through glacial deposits and ice cores.

These two sources are fundamental to the study of ancient climates whose salient information has been preserved and locked in time through glacial deposits.

  • A place can remain frozen for an extended period of time.
  • Some gas bubbles can be trapped in the midst of ice being formed.
  • These bubbles and compacting sequences of ice layers are used to interpret ancient climates.
  • Ice cores are drilled an collected in barrels where they are taken to the laboratory for further studies.
  • It is possible to even date each ice layer.

So, the solution is through glacial deposits and ice cores.
