Column 1
The outer core is made of this material
What is Iron and Nickel
T/F Volcanoes are most commonly formed at (continental-to-continental) Convergent plate boundaries
FALSE IT'S MOUNTAINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mid-Ocean ridges are formed by this type of plate boundary
Divergent plate boundary
This is the type of plate boundary where the plates move away from each other
What are divergent plate boundaries?
This is the part of the Earth's mantle and crust that is hard, brittle, and rocky.
Lithosphere
T/F The Atmosphere is the entire Earth.
FALSE
T/F The crust is the least dense layer of the geosphere
TRUE!
This is the sphere of the Earth that is made of liquid water
This is the amount of mass per unit of volume and object has.
"How much stuff in how much space."
What is Density?
This is the type of boundary formed by two plates colliding
Convergent Plate Boundary
The solid, rocky topmost layer of the Geosphere
What is the Crust?
This cause of plate movement happens when a plate is subducted
Slab pull
This is the part of the Earth that is made of rocks and minerals.
What is the Geosphere?
The dense, metallic center of the Earth
What is the Core?
True/False the outer crust of the Earth is always moving around
True
Transform plate boundaries often cause these.
What are Earthquakes?
T/F The asthenosphere is in the uppermost mantle
False, but this is Charlotte C.'s trick question
The Earth is this shape, which is a shape where the points on the surface are all the same distance from the center.
What is a sphere? or Spheroid?
The core has two parts. This part is solid.
The movement of heat through liquid, or liquid moving because of heat.
Convection
This type of plate boundary is made by two plates sliding past each other.
Transform Plate Boundary
This cause of plate movement happens when new crust at mid-ocean ridges pushes plates apart
Ridge push
This is the attractive force between any two objects with mass.
What is Gravity?
What is the Cryosphere?
This word means soft and moldable
What is Plastic?
