The statements that accurately compare the tectonic activity of the planets are:
- The terrestrial planets experience quakes; the gas giants do not.
- Terrestrial planets experience (or experienced) tectonic activity; gas giants do (or did) not.
- Activity in the molten interior of the terrestrial planets results (or resulted) in tectonic activity.
Which statements accurately compare the tectonic activity of the planets? Check all that apply.
The terrestrial planets experience quakes; the gas giants do not.
The gas giants have multiple plates; the terrestrial planets do not.
The gas giants have no true surfaces, so they experience tectonic activity.
Terrestrial planets experience (or experienced) tectonic activity; gas giants do (or did) not.
Mountains and volcanoes are found on the gas giants, not on terrestrial planets.
Activity in the molten interior of the terrestrial planets results (or resulted) in tectonic activity
