C3 L1 : The Geological Origins Of Britain
Describe how geologists use magnetic evidence to track the movement of the continents
give examples od evidence that shows different rocks in Britain formed in different climates
Convection
Particles move more when hot
...
Lower density allows the particle to rise
...
( Convection Current )
The heat in the earth model is provided by -- Nuclear Fission / radioactive decay in the core
-> Continental drift
Convection happens in -> Mantle + Outer core
Why do tectonic plates move ?
Fission releasing heat - convection
