1
How do scientists today explain the movement of tectonic plates?
When heat creates convection currents in the mantle
The are floating in the ocean and move randomly.
The spinning of the Earth gives them energy to move.
2
Crust is destroyed at which plate boundary?
Transform
Divergent
Convergent
3
Which type of
convergent
boundary results in mountain ranges like the
Himalayas
?
Continental & Continental
Oceanic & Continental
all of them
Oceanic & Oceanic
4
Which of the following is a force that causes tectonic plates to move.
Conduction
Radiation
Earthquakes and Volcanoes
Convection
5
The Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Iceland, and East Africa are examples of which boundary type?
Convergent
Divergent
Transform

Oceanic & Continental
7
New crust is created at which plate boundary?
Convergent
Transform
Divergent
8
Which boundary type is characterized by long faults and shallow earthquakes?
Divergent
All of these
Convergent
Transform
9
As a result of this boundary there would be the following ?
Ridges
Ocean Trench
Folded mountains
Rift Valley
10
Which type of
convergent
boundary does not result in trenches?

Oceanic & Oceanic
11
