What are all the oceans?
Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Arctic Ocean, Indian Ocean, and Southern/Antarctic Ocean
What are the 2 types of crusts?
Oceanic Crust and Continental Crust
What are the 3 pieces of evidence for plate tectonics?
Puzzle Piece Theory, Fossil Record, and Mountain Ranges
What was Alfred Wegener known for?
Creating the continental drift hypothesis.
How are volcanoes formed?
When oceanic crust and continental crust form a subduction zone.
Floating on top of the mantle like a surfboard. The mantle moves from convection currents from the heat of the core.
What boundary causes earthquakes?
Transform Boundary
What type of seismic wave goes through liquids and which cannot go through liquids?
P-waves can go through liquids and S-waves cannot go through liquids.

What are the 3 types of boundaries? What do they do and create?
Divergent Boundary - 2 plates move apart creating a rift

Even though the inner core is 9,392°F and the element's melting point is 2,800°F, the pressure of the earth is so much, the atoms do not have room to move in liquid form.
What mountain ranges are used as evidence for plate tectonics?
Appalachian Mountains, Scottish highlands, Togo Mountains in West Africa, and Scandinavian mountains
