Mystery
Describe the difference between quantitative and qualitative observations.
Quantitative deal with numbers, qualitative deal with qualities/traits/characteristics.
What happens to temperature and pressure as you travel DEEPER into the Earth?
They INCREASE
A volcano can be extinct, dormant, or this.
Active
This type of rock is formed through heat and pressure.
Metamorphic
This occurs at convergent plate boundaries where oceanic crust moves under continental crust and recycles back into the mantle.
Subduction
Identify the IV and DV: Mr. Martin adds one splash of honey to his morning cup of earl grey tea to see if it makes him less sleepy. Then he adds two and even three splashes the next two days. He measures the number of yawns that escape him each day until noon.
IV: Splashes of honey
DV: Number of yawns
This is the deepest layer of the Earth
Core (or inner core)
Describe how highly viscous lava would move down the sides of a volcano.
Slow
This type of rock is formed through compaction and cementation.
Sedimentary
This type of STRESS occurs when rock is pulled apart, becoming thinner.
Tension
Name the steps of the scientific method in order.
1. Purpose/Problem
2. Research
3. Hypothesis
4. Experiment
5. Analyze Data
6. Conclusion
The solid layer of the Earth that behaves like a liquid. It "flows" allowing the plates to move.
Asthenosphere
The area around the Pacific Ocean with high volcano and earthquake activity.
Ring of Fire
This type of rock is formed through melting and cooling.
Igneous
This type of FAULT occurs when the hanging wall slips downward and moves away from the foot wall.
Normal Fault
Identify the IV and DV: Mr. Ryan drinks a different amount of water before riding his Peloton, then measures how many miles he rode after 30 minutes.
IV: Amount of water drank
DV: Miles rode (It was 10+, get a little savage with it)
The order of the layers of the Earth from top to bottom.
Crust, Mantle, Core (Outer core, inner core)
This type of volcano forms when plumes of hot mantle rock rise upward through the Earth’s crust. They are not near plate boundaries.
Hot Spot
The name given to the continuous changing of rocks over time.
The Rock Cycle
This type of PLATE BOUNDARY occurs when the plates move AWAY from each other.
Divergent
Identify and describe the three types of heat transfer.
Conduction - moves through solids.
Radiation - moves through space.
Convection - moves through liquids/gases.
This layer of the Earth contains the tectonic plates.
Lithosphere
This type of volcano is large with gentle slopes of basaltic lava.
Shield
Lava cools to create this type of rock.
Igneous
This type of seismic wave moves through solids AND liquids.
