2.)Do a lot of people live near plate tectonics? Or do people tend to live a distance away from them?Closed
3.)What is the most populated area that is affected by earthquakes the most?Why?Open
4.)Why do plate tectonics move?Open
5.)How often do plate tectonics move?Closed
6.)Are volcanoes more active around plate boundaries that have more movement?Closed
7.) What are volcanoes? And why do we have them?Open
8.) What exactly causes earthquakes?Open
9.)How do plate tectonics affect the different layers of the earth?Open
10.)How have plate tectonics changed in recent years?Open
11.)Do solar flares affect plate tectonics on earth?Closed

Open-8
Closed-6

2.) Does the majority of earth's population live near plate tectonics or do they live further away from them? Why?
5.) How often and why do plate tectonics move?
6.) Are volcanoes more active around plate boundaries that have more movement? Why or why not?
11.) How do solar flares affect plate tectonics on earth?
12.) Where are earthquakes most likely to happen? Why?
14.) Could there really be life on Mars? What evidence is there? Why do we think this? What are we doing to further investigate the information we already have?


Top 3:

3.) What greatly populated area is affected by earthquakes the most? Why?
13.) How do plate tectonics affect aquatic life?

Question we are going to do:
Combining questions 2 and 3

  1. I really think you all came up with some good questions. I like that you chose to combine questions 2 and 3. I think it will be really interesting to do some research about and compare the plates to where people live.
