The theory of plate tectonics states that the earth's upper mantle and crust, have been broken into huge slab pieces, which are also called plates.
Divergent Boundries
Divergent boundaries are mostly found on the seafloor, and is when there are two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other, creating an ocean ridge.
Convergent Boundaries
Convergent boundaries are when two tectonic plates move toward each other, and eventually collide creating a convergent boundary with ...

Strip mining, slash and burn farming, damming of rivers, and the extinction of many species of plants and animals have all lead...
Introduction Ordinary matter has negatively charged electrons circling a positively charged nuclei. has positively charged electrons - positrons - orbiting a nuclei with a negative charge - anti-protons. Only anti-protons and positrons are able to be produced at this time, but scientists in Switzerland have begun a series of experiments which the...
