Plate motions
Plates move this way for transform boundaries.
These natural disasters happen at a transform boundary.
What are Earthquakes?
What is Convection?
With Heat and Pressure, Igneous and Sedimentary rocks can become this type of rock.
What is metamorphic?
This is the deepest layer of the Earth.
Inner Core
The mid-ocean ridge is a mountain chain under the Atlantic ocean made from this type of boundary.
What is divergent?
Feeling the heat from Mr. R's projector as you walk past it.
What is Radiation?
What are Igneous rocks?
This layer of Earth is solid, but flows like a liquid.
What is the Asthenosphere?
Colliding plates are called this.
What are Convergent boundaries?
When plates crack open, what is allowed to rise to the surface from the mantle in an explosive way?
Molten Rock/ Magma/ Lava
Hot things PASS energy to cooler ones. Another way to say this is that cold things, do this, to heat energy.
What is absorb? (take)
Weathering and Eroding all rocks gives you these small broken pieces of rock.
What are sediments?
The crust, and both spheres are made of silicates, which are mostly these two elements.
What are Silicon and Oxygen.
These are created at Continental vs. Oceanic collision boundaries
What are Volcanoes?
Ice cubes disappear in a hot drink because they melt from this type of heat transfer once they touch the liquid.
What is conduction?
Sediments need to be ____ (squished) and _____ (glued) to become Sedimentary rocks.
What is Compacted and Cemented?
Tectonic plates are pieces of this layer of the Earth. (not crust)
What is the Lithosphere?
The plates move because of this heat transfer in the mantle.
What are Convection Currents?
These are created at subduction zones in the ocean
What are trenches?
What is drink, to Ice cube (Hot to cold)?
This many layers of Earth are made of rock, mostly.
What is three? (Lithosphere, Asthenosphere, Mantle)
Earth's Atmosphere (air layer) is made mostly of these two elements whose symbols are N and O.
What are Nitrogen and Oxygen?
