Warm-Up 1)What happens when two cars crash into each other? 2)What happens when you rub your hand against carpet? 3)What happens when you pull apart a Snicker’s candy bar? 4)Why does a hot air balloon rise?

Daily Objective SWBAT explain movement of the lithospheric plates. SWBAT infer the relationship between the type of plate boundary and the locations of various natural features such as ocean trenches, mountain ranges and mid-ocean ridges.

Plate tectonics Scientific theory that describes the large-scale movement of the lithosphere 8

Now let’s take a closer look At the earth’s interior 9

Examine the chart of the layers of the Earth and answer the following questions: 1.What is the thickest layer of the Earth? 2.What is the densest layer of the Earth? Where is this layer found? 3.What is the least dense layer of the Earth? Where is this layer found? Examine the chart of the layers of the Earth and answer the following questions: 1.What is the thickest layer of the Earth? 2.What is the densest layer of the Earth? Where is this layer found? 3.What is the least dense layer of the Earth? Where is this layer found?

So… What’s it supposed to look like? 11

What about particles? How do particles change when they are cold and hot? THEREFORE: Hotter objects are ___________ dense and colder objects are ____________ dense. How do particles change when they are cold and hot? THEREFORE: Hotter objects are ___________ dense and colder objects are ____________ dense. Colder particles Hotter particles

Convection The transfer of heat in the asthenosphere due to unequal heat from the core as magma heats up and rises, then cools down and sinks Responsible for the movement of the tectonic plates The transfer of heat in the asthenosphere due to unequal heat from the core as magma heats up and rises, then cools down and sinks Responsible for the movement of the tectonic plates

Real Life Examples 52

Himalayan Mountains At the border of India and Asia. Tallest mountain range in the world and includes Mount Everest.

Himalayan Mountains

East African Rift Valley Located in East Africa. Runs for thousands of miles. Has created great lakes and the largest waterfall in the world. This is the beginning of the breakup of a continent. As the rifting continues, it will lengthen and deepen and eventually will split the continent and in two.

East African Rift Valley

San Andreas Fault The San Andreas Fault is a continental transform boundary that runs a length of roughly 810 miles through California It forms the tectonic boundary between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate. It is the most studied fault on the planet.
