1 PLATE TECTONICS TRASHBALL REVIEW

2 Question 1 PANGAEA What was the name of the large landmass when all of the continents were joined?

3 Question 2 WEGNER Who was the scientist that come up with the idea of continental drift?

4 Question 3 INNER CORE What layer of the Earth is made of solid iron and nickel?

5 Question 4 Thin, runny lava Low in silica List 2 traits of a quietly erupting volcano.

6 Question 5 Focus What is the name of the spot inside the earth where an earthquake begins?

7 Question 6 Convergent Divergent Transform Name the 3 types of plate boundaries. Watch spelling on tomorrow’s test!!!

8 Question 7 Movement of continents to new regions What is continental drift?

9 Question 8 vent What is the name of the opening of a volcano where the magma comes out?

10 Question 9 Pahoehoe- thin, fast flowing, hotter, hardens smooth Aa- thick, slow moving, cooler, forms chunks What is different between pahoehoe and aa?

11 Question 10 Break or crack in Earth’s crust What is a fault?

12 Question 11 Strike-slip, reverse, normal Name 3 types of faults.

13 Question 12 Oceanic crust subducts because it is more dense What happens when oceanic crust and continental crust collide?

14 Question 13 Violent eruption During what type of eruption is there a pyroclastic flow?

15 Question 14 Seismic waves What is the general name for the waves that travel through the Earth during an earthquake?

16 Question 15 Asthenosphere- plastic-like and can move The layer of the Earth responsible for plate tectonics is? Why?

17 Question 16 An area away from plate boundaries where island chain when the plate continues to move and magma is released. What is a hot spot?

18 Question 17 Sea-floor spreading The action of magma being released and adding to the oceanic crust is called?

19 Question 18 P-wave, S-wave, Surface wave What are the three types of seismic waves?

20 Question 19 Surface wave Which seismic wave is the most destructive?

21 Question 20 Circle around the Pacific Ocean that has many of the worlds volcanoes What is the Ring of Fire?

22 Question 21 Inner core, outer core, mantle, asthenosphere, lithosphere, crust Name the 6 layers of the Earth from the inside-out?

23 Question 22 Continental and oceanic crusts Granite and Basalt are the rocks that make up these two things.

24 Question 23 Lava What is magma called when it hits Earth’s surface?

25 Question 24 Tsunami A huge sea wave made because of an earthquake on the ocean floor?

26 Question 25 Seismograph The instrument that records seismic activity is ?

27 Question 26 convection The process of heat circulating through a material that is responsible for plate tectonics is called ?

28 Question 27 Fossils and shapes of continents What 2 main pieces of evidence led Wegner to believe in continental drift ?

29 Question 28 Earth’s layers and types of plate boundaries What main ideas were demonstrated in the Milky Way activity ?

30 Question 29 Explosive eruptions What was demonstrated in the Mentos and Baking Soda/Vinegar Lab ?

31 Question 30 Richter Scale What is the name of the scale that determines the strength of an earthquake based on the size of its waves?

32 Question 31 Add new rock to existing land and form new islands How are volcanoes constructive?

33 Question 32 Seafloor subducts at a boundary and melts into magma once again How can seafloor become magma again?
