<u>ANSWER:</u>

Tornadoes can't be explained by the "movement of the tectonic plates".

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Tornadoes are not caused because of the "movement of tectonic plates" but because of winds.
  • When winds develop into high pressure storms and these come in contact with the surface of the air as well as cumulonimbus clouds, tornadoes take place.
  • Tornadoes are fast moving air columns that move in a circular pattern and have such a high intensity that they destroy everything that comes in the way.
  • Mountains, earthquakes and volcanoes are all formed because of "movement of tectonic plates".

The _ is continuous movement of water between earth's surface and the air
masya89 [10]
The water cycle or hydrologic cycle is the continuous movement of water between the earth's surface and the air. Water molecules move from the atmosphere (or air) to the earth's surface and back again. Water moves from the atmosphere to the earth's surface via rain, snow, sleet or hail. It moves back to the atmosphere via evaporation. The sun's energy is the catalyst for the movement of water between the atmosphere and the earth's surface.
