What is anything that takes up space and has mass?
MATTER
100
This plate boundary is where plates move apart from each other.

100
This is the innermost layer of the earth.
CORE
100
What layer of Earth are broken up into tectonic plates?
Lithosphere
100
A lake. What system is this (geo, bio, hydro, atmo)?
HYDROsphere
200
This is matter where the atoms are tightly packed together.
SOLID
200
This plate boundary is where plates collide and push into eachother.
CONVERGENT
200
This is the OUTERMOST layer of the Earth.
CRUST

A human. What system is this (geo, bio, hydro, atmo)?
BIOsphere
300
This is matter where the atoms are a little spaced out and take the shape of the container.
LIQUID
300
This plate boundary is where plates slide/scrape past each other.
TRANSFORM
300
This is between the crust and core.
MANTLE
