Plate Tectonics 2

Mountain Ranges like the Himalayas (Mt. Everest) are made at this type of boundary:

Trenches are found at this type of boundary:

The idea that the continents are drifting around on Earth's surface was first called the:

The Earth has this many layers:

The Continental Drift Hypothesis was first proposed by:

Two plates sliding past each other (like in California) is this type of boundary:

Rift Valleys are found at this type of boundary:

Wegener proposed that the continents were once joined in a large land mass called:

When a plate descends or drops into the mantle, it is known as this:

When two plates are moving toward each other, it is this type of boundary:

This location sits on a hot spot:

This part of the Upper Mantle contains convection currents:

This part of the upper mantle combines with the crust to make the:

One piece of evidence used to support the Continental Drift Hypothesis was:

The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is this type of boudary:

This type of crust is least dense and thickest:

This is a type of plate boundary (where two plates meet):

This layer is made of liquid Iron and Nickel:

Convection Currents are found in this layer:

The arguments against the Continental Drift Hypothesis were:

Tectonic Plates are made of this:

This type of crust is the most dense and thinnest:

This is the outermost layer of the Earth:

The place where a mantle plume reaches the surface of the Earth is known as a:
