Earthquakes are measured using all of these, except for?

The ridged outer part of the Earth, including the crust and upper mantel is called this.

Volcanoes spew hot lava, also known as this type of rock.

A Continental Rift occurs when two what pull apart

Paleomagnetism shows how Earth's what has reversed several times throughout history?

Moment magnitude uses seismic stations and triangulation to measure the distance from what?

Particles produced in volcanic eruption.

Continental Plate Boundaries form what?

When Convergence occurs all of these except what can occur?

A region of Earth's crust where tectonic plates meet.

Pockets of stored magma in the mantle rise through the crust are called what?

This is the theory the german scientist Alfred Wagener theorized.

This is the layer of the Earth found right underneath the lithosphere.

What is the plate boundary where two plates slide past each other in a horizontal motion?

Iron and magma meet magnetic field during paleomagnetism, aligns with what is current magnetic?

All of these except for what are Volcano types?

Transform and this type of plate boundary can start Earthquakes.

All of these, except for what are associated with divergent boundaries?

Ocean Drilling involves using samples of this type of rock to see evidence of Plate Techtonics.
