100
This boundary causes shear force.
What are Transform Boundaries?
100
This boundary causes the most earthquakes
What is a transform boundary?
100
This is the process of moving rocks to different places.
What is erosion?
100
This is the hot, semi-liquid that comes out of volcanoes.
What is magma?
200
This person came up with the theory of continental drift
Who is Alfred Wegener?
200
These are effects of earthquakes. (need at least two)
What are land slides, tsunamis, volcanoes, and shock waves?
200
This is the process of "dropping" rocks at a new area.
What is deposition?
200
These are volcanoes that form in the middle of a plate.
What is a hot spot?
300
This is the largest plate. It makes up the pacific ocean.
What is The Ring of Fire?
300
This is when loose sediments act more like a liquid than a solid.
What is liquefaction?
300
This is the process of breaking down rocks while changing the composition.
What is chemical weathering?
300
This is where most volcanoes are found.
What are the edges of tectonic plates?
400
Scientists noticed that the same this and this were found on separate continents.
What are fossils and rocks?
400
How do earthquakes form?
Plates slide past each other
400
This is the process of breaking down rocks without changing the composition.
What is physical weathering?
400
Volcanoes form mostly at this boundary.
What is a divergent boundary?
500
This causes plates to move
What is convection currents?
500
This is a rupture and sudden movement of rocks along the breaks or the cracks in the earth's crusts
What is an earthquake?
500
These are ways rocks can move in erosion. (list at least two)
What is water, wind, glaciers, etc.
500
These are types of volcanoes. (list at least two)
What is shield, composite, fissure, etc.
