What type of plate movement does this show? 

Divide or Divergent boundary

100

What comes out of a volcano during an eruption?

lava

100

What is an earthquake? 

Shaking and vibrating of Earth's surface

100

What is sedimentary rock made up of?

Sediment (dirt, sand, gravel)
100

What causes mountains to change?

Tectonic Plate Movement

200

What type of plate boundary is shown? 

Transform or Slide

200

What is the lava called before it comes out of volcano?

Magma

200

What causes earthquakes?

Tectonic plate movement

200

What type of rock does cooled lava turn into?

Igneous Rock

200

What is the middle of the earth made of?

Magma, melted rock

300

What plate boundary is when two plates move toward each other?

 -> <- 

Convergent or collide

300

What causes a volcano to form?

Convergent plates (two plates collide) and one plate slides under the other, creating a hole where magma is released. Subduction.

300

Where do most earthquakes occur?

Along tectonic plate boundaries or the Pacific Ring of Fire.

300

What are the three main type of rocks? 

1. Metamorphic 2. Igenous 3. Sedimentary

300

What name was given to the super-continent?

Pangea

400
This is a type of convergent boundary (collide), but the heavier plate slides under the lighter one.

subduction

400

Where are most volcanoes found on Earth?

Tectonic Plate Lines

400
On a scale of 1-10, what is the higher seismic rating. 

10

400

What causes metamorphic rock to form?

Heat and pressure

400

What is destructive process from volcanoes?

A mountain breaking down, exploding, rocks moving, avalanches. 

500

Think back to the Mid-oceanic ridge, what was the result of the divergent boundary?

A crack in the ground

500

What is one constructive change from volcanoes? 

Making new land, make the mountains taller. 

500

What type of plate boundary causes more earthquakes? 

Convergent or collide

500

What is weathering and erosion?

The breaking down and moving of rock or sediment by wind, water, weather, etc. 

500

What is compaction and cementation?

Sediment turning into solid sedimentary rock through squeezing, pressure, less space.
