200

Main characteristics of convection


What is Heat rising, cooling, and sinking


Example: Anything that moves in a circular motion

300

A block of ice is placed on a hot sidewalk. The ice melts due to what heat transfer and why

what is conduction; the energy from the sidewalk flows to the ice.

400

Which process accounts for the formation of horizontally layered rocks? Draw a picture of what this rock might look like?

What is compaction and cementation

400

When two plates move towards each other (oceanic and continental plate) they form what geological feature?

What is volcanoes and trenches due to subduction zones

500

What would happen to the heat energy in a blanket if a blanket is placed on a bed? (hot to cold)

What is the heat energy spreads from the blanket to the bed via conduction

500
