Scientific Theory • A scientific theory is an well developed explanation of some part of the natural world. • It must be based on a large amount of evidence that has been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment.
Theory of Plate Tectonics • Earth’s crust is broken up into pieces called plates. • Earth’s plates are in slow, constant motion. • Convection currents in the mantle cause the motion.
