2.What happened to the igneous and sedimentary rock formations during plate motion?

Answer 1

How do rock formations move between Earth's surface and interior?

Plate motion moves rock formations. Subduction moves rock down, below Earth's outer layer. Uplift moves rock upward, toward Earth's surface

What happened to the igneous and sedimentary rock formations during plate motion?

The igneous rocks are eroded and turned into sedimentary rocks. The sedimentary rocks layers generally tend to be recycled by plate tectonics. The deep ocean sediments are turned back into igneous rocks where they are pushed back into the mantle at subduction zones.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

1) Plate motion moves rock formations. Subduction moves rock down, below Earth’s outer layer.

2)At diverging plate boundaries, convection currents bring hot magma to the surface. This hot magma flows out onto the ocean floor, forming extrusive, finely grained igneous rocks. At convergent plate boundaries, sedimentary rock from the ocean floor gets pushed down into the mantle.
