What is the inner core?
Composed of iron crystals, solid SOM, the temp will change by the density the lower you go, materials in the core are more dense.
100

A specific and interactive set of steps use to organize their ides and refine potential solutions to engineering

What is an Engineering design loop?
100
What is the process of an igneous rock?
When molten (liquid) rocks cool and crystallizes deep inside the earth or flowing over earths surface.
100
What scientist made up the continental drift hypothesis?
Alfred Wegner
100
What is the definition of weather
Short term conditions for the current day or week
200
What is the outer core?
only liquid core composed by different materials
200
Determine the need: what is done in this step?
Identify the need of problem
200
How and where is intrusive formed?
Cools slowly inside earth, made from magma.
200
What were the 4 pieces of evidence to his theory?
Fit of continents, fossil evidence, rocks, climate.
200
What is the definition of Climate?
Long term (30 or more years) average
300
What is the mantle?
Composed with thick middle layers of earth, iron, magnesium, rock, solid, density keeps moving by the pressure and temp
300
Research the problem. what is done in this step?
Research the need or problem
300

How and where is extrusive rock formed?

Cools quickly outside earth, made from lava, made from lava.
300
What was the reason why this theory was not accepted?
Could not explain how they moved across the earth. Continental crust is not strong enough to cut through dense crust.
300
What is the definition of air pressure
Caused by the unequal heating of earth's surface.
400
What is the asthenosphere?
Composed with rocks, SOM solid but has a plastic soft flow
400
What is a prototype?
A model like structure able to make tweaks and changes until making the final product
400
How is sedimentary rock formed?
Weathering and erosion, deposition, compact, cementant.
400
What is the name for a super continent?
Pangea
400
Which heats faster Sand or water?
Sand
500
What the Plate Tectonics order from most dense-less dense?
Inner core, outer core, mantle, asthenosphere, lithosphere, oceanic crust, continental crust.
500
What is the Engineering design loop order?
Identify the problem, research the problem, develop possible solution(s), select the best possible solution(s), construct a prototype, test and evaluate the solution(s), communicate the solution(s), redesign.
500
What types of environment were sedimentary rock occur?
Swamps, lake, delta, pond, ocean (shallow or deep), river.
500
What was the definition of Climate is the theory
Wegner noticed climate evidence did not match! Tropical evidence at poles and polar evidence near equator. Tell us continental moved overtime
500
What is the definition of LAMECOW
Latitude, air pressure, mountain barriers, elevation, continental location, ocean, wind.
