Question

How are thw continental plates formed and how are they eventually destroyed?

Answer 1

The plate moving down gets heated tremendously due to the internal heat of the Earth and melts this way it gets destroyed. ... thus whenever two plates are pushed away from each other molten magma comes out of the surface of the Earth. this way new crust is formed.

$\huge{\bold{\underline{Answer:}}}$

• According to geologists continents and oceans are actually situated on massive base of rocks called plates, that are floating on the mantle.

• Continental plates are formed due to the activities like sea floor spreading in which the lava raising up from the mantle are hardened into rock creating new rocks.

• These plates are constantly pushed and therefore keep moving slowly.

• This movement of plates is called plate tectonics.

• While this movement continues, they pushes/collide each other, a lot of pressure is excreted by each of them on the other.

• The plate thus going under into the mantle becomes molten.

• It actually pulls the rest of the plate in to the mantle. Thus the plate is destroyed.
