The reason why the lithospheric plates that compose the Earth's crust are constantly moving is A. The underlying mantle layer is molten where convection currents cause the movement of the lithospheric plates.

<h3>Why do plates move?</h3>

The earth's crust is made up of lithospheric plates that rest on the mantle which is molten as a result of the high temperatures of the core.

Convection currents in the mantle result in the plates moving as the currents come up from the core to heat up the mantle.

In conclusion, option A is correct.

kari74 [83]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{About 50 yr}}$

Why have we not found examples in the fossil record of every animal that ever lived on earth? select all that apply. select all

Reptile [31]

Many fossils remain buried
Rocks contain the history of life...

Btw the animal ones don't count i think cuz fossils can be anything like teeth, bones or anything not just animals it can be formed by leaves as well so just for extra guidance i believe the ones that state animals are probably not the options to choose due to the fact that fossils are not just living organisms they're anything that has been buried and decomposed over many years and layers of sediments cover it over many years compression may alter the shape of the fossil aswell!

Hope that extra info helps for a bit of guidance!
