rocks
these types of rocks are all sedimentary
What is limestone, sandstone, shale
this is the line or area where most earthquakes occur
what are plate boundaries
This is cooled magma
what is igneous rock
This is the type of boundary where two plates come together
this is Geological time
what is Earth's origin to present time
This turns igneous rock into metamorphic rock
what is heat and pressure
this causes earthquakes
what is the shifting of the tectonic plates or plate tectonics
this is the name for the area in the pacific ocean where a lot of volcanoes form
what is the ring of fire
this is the type of boundary where two plates spread apart from one another
what is a divergent boundary
Humus, weathered rock, sand, silt, and clay all make up this
what is soil
This is what geologists use to determine the age of a rock layer
what is an index fossil
this is where you would most likely experience an earthquake
what is near a plate boundary, in a subduction zone, or on a volcanic island chain
this is where the ring of fire is located
What is East coast of Asia and the West coats of north and south america
this id the type of boundary where two plates move past one another
what is a transform boundary
this is the name of the chuncks of the earth's crust
what is tectonic plates
this is where a rock that contains a fossil of coral was formed
what is in ocean water
this is how the strength of earth quakes is measured
what is magnitude
a volcano with no chance of erupting is
what is extinct
this is where one plate slides under the other plate
what is subduction
these are the ways mountains can form
what is uplift, folding, faulting, converging plates, volcanoes, subduction
this is how metamorphic rock turns into sedimentary rock
what is weathering, erosion and deposition
can all rocks change over time
what is yes
this is a volcano that has a chance but is not actively erupting
what is dormant
This is why a mountain can "grow" over time
what is two plates collide, causing one plate to rise over the other and as that plate rises the mountain "grows"
this is how granite could turn into sand stone over time
what is the granite can be weathered and erode into sand,travel by wind or water, deposit into a basin, and over time cementation and pressure turns it into sandstone
