Who is Alfred Wegner?
Answer:
Question:
Plate Tectonics History - 300
The idea that the plates spread when hot, light material in the mantle pushes through the crust under oceans, pushes the plates apart, and cools to become a new part of the ocean floor.

What are the three main types of plate boundaries?
Answer:
Question:
Plate Tectonic Causes - 200
The heating, rising, cooling, and sinking of the liquid in the mantle, that flows in a circle, can move the tectonic plates above the mantle, and cause them to push into each other.

What are the effects of convection currents on the tectonic plates?
Answer:
Question:
Plate Tectonic Causes - 300
Two continental plates come together and create mountains, two oceanic plates come together and create a volcano, or a continental plate and an oceanic plate come together and create a volcano.
