Plate Tectonics: History and Boundaries
Just as the theory of evolution underpins Biology The theory of Plate tectonics is the basis of Earth Science So how did the theory of Plate tectonics.
Alfred Wegener & Continental Drift Dark Brown = evidence of one connected.
From the time maps of the globe became available, people wondered about the arrangement of the continents and oceans. Hundreds of years later, valid explanations.
PLATE TECTONICS HOW THE EARTH MOVES. STRUCTURE OF THE EARTH The Earth is made up of 3 main layers: Core (inner and outer) Mantle Crust Inner core.
Plate Tectonic Theory Evidence for Plate Tectonics.
The earth’s crust is made of twelve plates. These plates float around on the mantle’s flowing rock.
Alfred Wegener 1912 Proponent of the continental drift theory/hypothesis German meteorologist.
The Theory of Plate Tectonics Earth’s crust is made of many plates These plates move as a result of convection in the mantle Earth’s surface is constantly.
