Philadelphia was very jungle-like and tropical because...

When it was part of Pangaea, it was closer to the equator

According to the lab, what did the water that was directly under the heat do?

It became less dense and moved to the top.

As tectonic plates move away from each other...

Magma fills up the gap that is created

What kind of temperature occured in the center of the pan?

It was hot b/c of the heat source

Is it possible to get to the mantle?

No, the crust is too thick to drill through

According to the lab, what did the water that was directly under the heat do?
It became more dense and moved to the top of the pan.

The right side of South America and the left side of Africa... (be specific)
Look like each other reflected on a mirror
Both have people living on them
Fit together like a puzzle
Look like jagged lines or a messed up heart monitor :D

Al Weggner
Alfred Wegner
Ally Wegner
Alfred Weggner
10
As tectonic plates move away from each other...
They get smaller
They cause earthquakes
Magma burns them down
Magma fills up the gap that is created
11

Continential and Mineralic
Oceanic and Mineralic
Land and Ocean
Oceanic and Continential

What kind of temperature occured in the center of the pan?
It was hot b/c of the heat source
It was hot. Just cause.
It was cold because the heat sources fumes spread out
It was cold. Just cause.
