100
This person proposed the continental drift
Who is Alfred Wegener
100
This is when plates move pase each other.
What is transform
100
The largest recorded earthquake size
What is 9.5
100
This is one of the most destructive things releaced from a volcano.
What is ash
100
this is when two plates come together
What is Convergent
200
This stated that all continents were once one big landmass
What is the continental drift theory
200
This is when plates seperate or spread apart
What is a diverge
200
The location of the largest earhtquake
Where is Chile
200
This causes lava to come out of a volcano
What is pressure
200
No magma is formed at this boundry
What is a transform boundary
300
The reason Alfred Wegener's theory was rejected.
Why is there was no know force
300
This is when plates move into each other.
What is a converge
300
This is where an earthquake starts
Where is the crust
300
this is where most volcanos happen
What are plate boundaries
300
This boundary can cause the formation of mountains
What is a convergent boundary
400
Fossils, and similar rocks were found on different continents proving this.
What is continental drift
400
These make up the Earth's crust.
What are plates
400
This is what scientist use to measure the size of earthquakes
What is a seismometer
400
Molten rock inside the earth
What is magma
400
occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other
What is divergent
500
This is thought to have caused the continental drift
What is Rotation of Earth
500
This causes the earths plates to move
What is heat and pressure
500
Earth quakes in the ocean can cause these.
What is a Tsunami
500
Molten rock outside the earth
What is lava
500
This occures when two plates slide past each
What is a transform boundary
