Tectonic Forces

-tectonic plates -fault

Richter scale

-Plates move in one of 4 ways 1- Spreading

-Creates rift valleys

2- subduction

Creates volcanoes

3- collision

Creates mountains

4- sliding past

Causes earthquakes

Causes tsunamis

Tectonic Forces p. 37-41 Define the following terms: tectonic plates, fault, seismograph, epicenter, richter scale, tsunami, Ring of Fire p.38-39 “Plate Movement and Boundaries” -Explain each of the 4 types of plate movements and what is created/caused by each one -Draw a picture of each plate movement (do not use the picture in the book) and a picture of each landform or event that is caused by the plate movement
