Which of these statements is true about plate tectonics? Continental drift on the Earth is caused by circulating convection curr
ents in the deep interior. Continental drift on Earth is caused by the slow precession of Earth's spin axis. Tidal forces from the Moon and Sun causes the slow drift of continental land masses. Two crustal plate boundaries can easily slide past each other because of the presence of seawater. The Mid‑Atlantic Ridge is an area of continuous seafloor erosion which creates powerful earthquakes along a subterranean mountain chain.
continental drift on the Earth is caused by circulating convection currents in the deep interior
Explanation:
The Tectonic plates make up the earth's crust and the movement of these tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust is due to the movement of the Magma of the earths crust that flows/moves in the form of convectional currents.
The earths crust acts as the heat insulator which when heated up due to internal pressures releases hot Magma flowing in the form of convectional currents apart from the convectional currents causing the plate tectonics to move other factors like ridge push and slab pull can also cause the plates to move as well.
The answer is: Continental drift on the Earth is caused by circulating convection currents in the deep interior.
Explanation:
Numerous studies and observations have shown that plate tectonics is due to the circulatory motion of convection currents within the Earth’s mantle which is below the Earth’s crust, and is as deep as 2,890 km. The motion of the convection currents are propelled by heat which rises and transports gas, and liquids or molten substances, and causes the crust (landmass, and ocean floor) to move.
Traditional crops are still produced by traditional methods in many parts of the world by either tribals or the practice of various countries but this does not mean that they are resistant to pests or germs and infections to meet the requirements of millions of population on earth.
Man has thus created HYV seeds that are genetically robust and modified to suit the harsh environments with less irrigation these crops can produce good quality results and thus, the community at large has to turn towards the hybrid and strong crops.
So, as to adopt these and meet the growing demands of people in rural areas so as the increase in migration from rural to urban to rural areas can be decreased and climate change and other issues can be tackled more openly.
