On average, about how fast are the tectonic plates moving?
continental drift
The theory of continental drift came before the theory of plate tectonics.
slide past each other
Convection currents in the mantle.
along the edges of tectonic plates.
subduction
5 Centimeters per year
Fossils and rocks on opposite sides of the oceans match each other.
The process where one plate is forced down under another plate is known as:
continental drift
The theory of continental drift came before the theory of plate tectonics.
slide past each other
Convection currents in the mantle.
along the edges of tectonic plates.
subduction
5 Centimeters per year
Fossils and rocks on opposite sides of the oceans match each other.
The theory that the contenents move over the Earth's surface is the theory of:
