Earth and Environmental Science Module 2 - Plate Tectonics

What type of fault is this?

One of the effects of a converging plate continental-continental boundary is:

Volcanism is found at which plate boundaries:

'Jigsaw fit' is referring to

The following shows what type of convergent plate boundary:

When magma reaches the surface at a MOR, it cools quickly to form:

The Alpine Fault in NZ is an example of a:

The process of oceanic plates moving from the MOR outwards is called...

At oceanic-oceanic boundaries, the plate which subducts is the:

Vine and Matthews used ___________ ____________ to explain banding patterns of the sea floor.

Shallow to deep focus earthquakes occur at

Oceanic-Continental Convergent boundaries produce which magma type?

The type of stress which forms reverse faults is called _______ stress

What direction is the Australian-Indian plate moving?

Divergent plate boundaries on continental crust form

Fossil evidence, matching rock types, paleoclimates and glacial deposits were evidence used by:
