Plate Tectonics The Earth on the Move

Parts of the Earth Third planet from the Sun. Terrestrial planet Lithosphere

Pangaea Originally all of the continents were attached. Notes

Plate Tectonics The world is divided into PLATES Notes:

The Earth Moves What the movement of plates cause Volcanoes and Earthquakes

All of the layers are not the same. Notes:

Movement The parts of the Earth are always in motion. Notes:

Divergent Boundary Sea Floor Spreading Notes: the plates move away from each other.

Convergent Boundary Continental Slide Notes: the plates collide into each other.

Collisional Boundary Continental Crust Notes

Transform Boundary Slippin & Slidin Notes: the plates slide pass each other

Movement Along Boundaries kwave.htmlhttp:// kwave.html Notes:
