The crust, mantle, and the core
What are the three layers of the Earth?
100
The plates collide
What is the way that Earthquakes are caused?
100
pressure builds under the crust because of the heat of the mantle
What is what causes a volcano to erupt?
100
Shield volcano
What is the type of volcano that has gentle sides and slower moving lava?
100
Will a shield volcano or a cinder cone volcano have faster flowing lava?
What is the purpose?
200
The crust
What is the layer of the Earth that has the Earth's plates?
200
The plates float on molten lava.
What is the reason the plates move?
200
The Ring of Fire
What is the area of the Earth where most active volcanoes occur?
200
Cinder cone volcano
What is a steeper volcano mountain with more violent eruptions?
200
A ____________ and ______________ are measuring tools needed to determine how fast the lava flows from the volcano.
What is a stopwatch and meter stick/yard stick?
300
The mantle
What is layer of the Earth that has hot molten lava, magma, inside it?
300
No scientists do not have clues when this will happen.
What is can scientists predict when an Earthquake will happen?
300
Igneous Rock
What is the type of rock that forms when molten lava cools and hardens?
300
Composite volcano
What is a volcano that has a combination of gentle and steep sides?
300
This is the part of the experiment when a chart of dates and locations of when and where volcanoes erupted would be included.
What is the results or observations?
400
The core
What is the layer of the Earth that is the hottest, but most solid dense part of the Earth?
400
Mountains and valleys
What are land forms that Earthquakes could cause?
400
Lava comes up through gaps in the Earth's plates.
What is what causes lava to come up through the layers of the Earth?
400
2 cm per year
What is the distance Earth's plates move in a year?
400
Students were trying to test if steep sides or gentle sloping sides cause faster moving lava. This would be the independent varible.
What are the sides of the volcano?
500
A grape, pudding, and an orange peel or A marble, clay, and aluminum foil
What are materials that can represent the Earth's layers
500
three, apart, together, or past each other
What are how many and the names of ways the Earth's plates can move?
500
The islands of Hawaii
What are the names of islands created only from volcanoes?
500
Yes, scientist have clues to tell when there is going to be a volcanic eruption.
What is can scientists tell when a volcano will erupt?
500
When scientists are able to predict if a volcano will erupt is the scientist making a ________________.
What is a hypothesis?
