Alfred Wegener
Alfred Wegener came up with this theory.
What is Continental Drift?
Two plates moving towards each other are called this.
What is convergent?
The plates glide on this layer.
What is the asthenosphere?
The plates (and continents) move this much per year.
What is about an inch?
This is the name of the volcanoes located in a circle shape on the Earth.
What is the Ring of Fire?
This is the name of the super continent that Wegener discovered.
What is Pangaea?
Earthquakes can be caused by this type of boundary.
What is transform?
This is the most dense layer of the Earth.
What is the inner core?
This was the name of the supercontinent that Wegener discovered.
What is Pangaea?
A volcano that will never erupt again is called this.
What is extinct?
Alfred Wegener was this type of scientist.
What is a meteorologist?
Two plates moving away from each other is this type of boundary.
What is divergent?
The plates are part of this layer.
What is the crust?
True or False: there could be another supercontinent.
What is true?
A volcano that has not erupted in a long time and may or may not erupt again is called this.
What is dormant?
True or False: Wegener formed other theories.
What is False?
Two plates that slide past each other are called this.
What is transform?
The asthenosphere is part of this layer.
What is the mantle?
Finding the remains of animals on different continents is this type of evidence for continental drift.
What is fossil evidence?
A volcano that is very likely to erupt again is called this.
What is active?
This is the year that Wegener discovered continental drfit.
What is 1915?
The plates moves because of this.
What are convection currents in the asthenosphere?
These are the two types of plates.
What are oceanic and continental?
Finding basalt on different continents is this kind of evidence for continental drift.
What is volcanic evidence?
A volcano can be formed at this type of plate boundary.
What is convergent?
