Pangea
This word means "All the Earth"
What is "Pangea"?
This part of the Earth is where divergent boundaries are usually found.
What is the ocean?
This type of crust is very thick.
What is continental crust?
Transform plate boundaries are where plates do this type of action.
What is slide against each other?
This is the center of an earthquake.
What is the epicenter?
This is the person who discovered Pangea
Who is Alfred Wegener?
What are oceanic and continental?
This type of crust is very dense, and typically sinks into the mantle.
What is oceanic crust?
Most transform faults are found in this area.
What is an ocean basin?
These are the three types of volcanoes.
What are composite, cinder, and shield?
These two coastlines were first noticed to fit well together.
What are Africa and South America?
The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is an example of this type of boundary.
What is oceanic?
The process where one plate is pushed down into the mantle.
What is subduction?
The fracture zone that forms a transform plate boundary is known as this.
What is a transform fault?
This instrument records earthquakes.
What are seismographs?
This occurrence is the reason for plate movement.
What are convection currents?
The East Africa Rift Valley is an example of this type of boundary.
What is Continental?
Partial melting produces this above a subducted oceanic plate.
What are magma chambers?
This is the most famous example of a transform fault.
What is the San Andreas Fault?
This volcanic production is a dangerous, fast moving concoction of gas, rocks, and ash.
What is pyroclastic flow?
These are two pieces of evidence for Wegener's theory of plate tectonics.
What are fossils and rocks?
These are two types of activity that occur at divergent boundaries.
What are volcanic and earthquake activity?
This property affects whether plates move into the mantle.
What is density/weight?
This type of fault is not considered a transform fault.
What is a strike-slip fault?
This type of seismic wave can travel through all material, and is extremely destructive.
What are p-waves?
