    A little about me: My name is Cary and I'm an animator, motion designer, and FX Artist. When I'm not working, I love learning all about science, from the microscopic to the epically large.
    I created this channel as a place where people can come to learn about science, share new ideas, and expand their knowledge of the world around them.
    We explore everything from the foundations of earth science and biology to the vast mysteries of the universe and everything in between.
    And as I learn new things, I look forward to sharing them here in a fun and engaging way that hopefully helps you learn something new and inspires you to pass it on.

      "Then" is sequential, "than" is comparative. You're comparing the amount of learning at school to the amount on UA-cam, so you would say "more on UA-cam than at school." Sorry, I'm an English major.

      I'm not trying to be mean or anything but u are the problem cause if ur teacher spent 1 week teaching you this and you still needed a video to understand that mean you weren't paying attention at class
      Which is BTW the same reason I'm here lol but yea you can't always plame the teachers when you r the one that isn't paying attention

      @philipainz2036 Рік тому

      @@Fx-ov5dn That may be possible, and another possibility is that some teachers don't deliver the lesson well for the students to understand, because believe it or not, seeing the fun and enjoying the class really depends on the teachers. For example, I used to hate math when I was in elementary, but when I got to senior high school, for some reason, the teachers made learning Math fun, that's why Math is my favorite subject in senior high.

      Hurting with deception and lies , people are so gullible about everything.
      How can people be for certain about this planets layers when it has never been cut in half to inspect ?
      They are full of shiot !
      The truth is something you can't hardly handle , you have no place for truth until you clean out the BS that you've been force fed.
      Truth ......
      There is mo such thing as tectonic plates , it reality is what you were told in this video is another lie .
      They have not witnessed one single tectonic plate in their life , it is made , a guess without proof.
      What they are calling tectonic plates are the dead petrified body's of humongous creatures and gigantic humans , a gigantic graveyard of dead creatures.
      Any land mass above the oceanic water's are nothing more than the humongous dead creatures.
      Where one body ends and another begins is the San Andreas fault line , earthquakes happens when the body's move around or shift by the water's surrounding it.

    Great video. Two things. 1-the Earth spins counterclockwise relative to north. 2-Continental rifts lead to sea floor spreading. The way it's presented it sounds like you're describing two types of divergent boundaries. There's one. Continental rifts are the precursors to sea floor spreading. The process and mechanisms are the same for both.

    • @miguelj.rubalcava3120
      @miguelj.rubalcava3120 5 років тому

      quick question... when he talks about the divergent boundaries, he mentions that usually the heavier, denser crust is the one that slides down. I saw another video where it states that its the thinner plate that slides down. is this the same thing? if not, who's right? thank you

    I wrote a term paper on Plate Tectonics and Alfred Wegener in 1968 in my pursuit of a degree in Geology at Michigan Technological University. Then this was merely considered a theory at that time and not given much attention at all. Nor much credence either. I totally bought in during my studies of this theory and the writing of my paper. I strongly argued for it. Not one course, or even a mention of plate tectonics, in any of my university classes during the 1960s. It has been amazing to me to watch this theory become fact within a few decades of my graduation.
