Answers

1
Increasing the temperature of a material will cause its density to
Stay the same
Decrease
Increase
temperature does not effect density
2
Where do the youngest/latest organisms/fossils appear?
There isn't enough information
On the bottom
On top
In the middle
3
Which plate boundary is at a deep ocean trench?
Convergent
Transform
Volcanic
Divergent
4
The oldest rock layer is found on the bottom
Principle of cross cutting relationships
Principle of lateral continuity
Principle of Original Horizontality
Principle of Superposition
5
Relative age/dating
helps to order past events
is not helpful in determining order historical events
tells how old my family members are
only useful for ordering rock strata
6
Which of the following is evidence for Wegener's continental drift theory
Mountains and rock strata matched on different continents
continent shapes seem to fit together
all of the above
similar fossils on different continents
7
Have there been effects from major events in earth's history? (ice ages, earth quakes, ect)
There has been no impact.
Life is still the same as 1 mya
We don't have proof of changes
Earth's climate/geograph has changed
8
Convection currents are the main cause of
Volcanoes
mass extinctions
Seafloor spreading
Weather changes
9
The outermost layer of Earth's crust is called the...
biosphere
atmosphere
lithosphere
oceans
10
Which feature has the oldest crust
seafloor spreading
Trench
Mid ocean ridge
subduction
11
The process that happens at an ocean trench is
subduction
convection current
transformation
new crust formation
12
Which plate boundary is at a mid-ocean ridge?
Divergent
Convergent
Transform
ocean
13
What evidence can be used to prove major events changed earth?
Fossils
There's written history from the beginning of time
Rock Strata
Both 1 & 3
14
Index fossils tell us
All of the above
found in 1 layer of rock
Other fossils in the layer are the same relative age
only lived for a short period of time
15
Which process happens at a mid-ocean ridge?
