False
True
3
Divergent slides on other plate tectonics
False
True
4
Divergent Boundaries create
Oceans!
Tall grass!
Baby Crust!
Old Crust!
5
Lithification
occurs when heavier clasts settle to the bottom first
process that turns loose sediment into rock
layers of rock
occurs when sediment transportation stops
6
One way Scientists learned about the layers of the Earth is from:
subduction zones
Space technology
Seismic (earthquake) waves
The water cycle
7
Where do plate tectonics take place?
lithosphere
asthenosphere
trianosphere
mesophere
8
Lithos means "air"
True
False
9
Plate Tectonics Is Caused By _______?
Magma Currents
Convection Currents
Radiation Currents
Conduction Currents
10
Does the rock cycle ever end?
Yes
No, it does not exist it's government propaganda
No
It last a long time but ends eventually
11
Plate Tectonics
by convection currents in the mantle.
gave rise to today's continents
The theory that pieces of Earth's lithosphere are in constant motion, drive
gave rise to today's continents
12
How is an igneous rock created?
when magma cools
from ocean creatures
they aren't created they are just there
when space particles collide and fall to earth
13
The earth's interior can be classified into these main layers
crust, the mantle, the core
Continental crust, inner core , mantle
inner core, crust, mantle
lithosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere
14
The earth's inner core is mostly made of:
Magma
Diamonds and Bedrock
Iron Only
Iron & Nickel
15
What are the plate boundaries called?
Hot Spot, Convergent, Transform
Divergent, Convergent, Transform
Hot Spot, Divergent, Transform
Hot Spot, Divergent, Convergent
16
What is the liquid layer of the Earth?
Outer core
Lithosphere
Mesosphere
Inner core
17
Which of these are not in the rock cycle?
uplifting
evaporation
melting
heat and pressure
18
Define: Rock Cycle
Only happens to igneous rocks
A process that slowly change rocks from one kind to another
Happens to only chemical rocks
A process that quickly change rocks from one kind to another
19
O-O Convergent boundaries have
Island chains
Mid-Ocean Ridge, Vents
Trench, Island Arcs
Calderas
20
why does weathering occur?
plant, human, and sand
ice, animals, and heat
biology, water, air, ice
fire, lightning, and combustion
21
Convergent boundaries
make pizza
destroy crust
move crust to the side
make crust
22
how are metamorphic rocks formed
in the ocean
heat and pressure
an oven
weathering and erosion
