1
What are some similarities between Continental Drift theory and Plate Tectonics theory?
helps us to determine how sea floors spreading happens
they both have three words in the title
they are both theories
helps understand continent features and movement
2
Convergent boundaries between continental plates create ______.
volcanoes
subduction zones
mountain ranges
mid-ocean ridges

Mr. Janssen
What's a teacher?
Mrs. Johnson
4
The picture below shows _____.
weathering
erosion only
weathering and erosion
erosion
5
The lithosphere is a(n) ______.
plasma
solid
gas
liquid
6
Which type of plate boundary slides past each other?
convergent
transform
divergent
7
What evidence was there in "Reuniting Pangaea" that shows the continents were once connected?
fossils of Glossopteris and Lystrosaurus
the changing climate of Asia
matching mountain belts in Australia and North America
movement of Africa
8
The picture below shows which type of boundary?
divergent
transform
convergent
9
Which theory states the continents move on the putty-like mantle (asthenosphere)?
Continental Drift Theory
Plate Tectonics Theory
Sea Floor Spreading Theory
Big Bang Theory
10
What is Continental Drift?
it explains the disappearance of Mesosaurus
it is an incorrect theory proposed by Alfred Wegener
it is when continents experience earthquakes
the theory tells how Pangaea broke into our continents
11
Which of the choices below is created by a convergent boundary?
new crust
mountain ranges
mid ocean ridges
sea floor spreading
12
Transform boundaries only create _______.
subduction zones
earthquakes
mountains
volcanoes
13
Which of the choices below IS NOT a type of plate boundary?
subvergent
divergent
convergent
transform
14
The picture below shows which type of boundary?
transform
convergent
divergent
15
Convection currents occur in the ______.
asthenosphere
ionosphere
mesosphere
lithosphere
16
Which of the choices below IS NOT created by a divergent boundary?
earthquakes
sea floor spreading
deep sea trenches
mid-ocean ridges
17
The picture below shows _____.
erosion
both weathering and erosion
only erosion
weathering
18
How does sea-floor spreading create mid-ocean ridges?
sea floor spreading creates islands
sea floor spreading subducts old crust
new crust is recycled in the mantle
sea floor spreading allows magma to create new crust
19
Which is a piece of evidence Wegener used to prove Continental Drift theory?
glaciers in Antarctica
matching fossil evidence on Africa and South America
Africa and North America fitting together like a puzzle
coal deposits in Asia
20
