_______ causes layers of rock to fold.
What is stress?
100
The stress shown below causes this kind of deformation. <--------- --------->
What is tension?
100
The strongest part of an earthquake is located at the _______.
What is the epicenter?
100
This volcano has gently sloping sides and erupts non-explosively.
What is Shield Volcanoes?
200
Synclines and anticlines are present in these types of mountains.
What is folded mountains?
200
At this type of boundary two tectonic plates collide with one another causing subduction and/or a mountain to form.
What is convergent boundaries?
200
This can be triggered when an earthquake is near water.
What is a tsunami?
200
When magma has reached the surface it is called _______.
What is lava?
300
This type of mountain is formed by molten rock that erupts from beneath the earth's surface.
What is a volcanic mountain?
300
At this boundary, two tectonic plates move horizontally past each other, forming long fault lines.
What is Transform Boundary?
300
When tectonic plates move along a fault, this will occur.
What is an earthquake?
300
During a non explosive eruption this would flow out of the volcano.
What is lava?
400
When large blocks of rocks are compressed this type of mountain forms.
What is folded mountains?
400
The arrow below represent which type of boundary? --------><---------
What is convergent boundaries?
400
When rocks are stretched then snap back in place is called this.
What is elastic rebound?
400
This type of eruption would be most likely to happen if pyroclastic material was released?
What is a violent eruption?
500
The arrows below represent this type of rock deformation. --------><--------
What is compression?
500
When two fault blocks move past one another horizontally we have this kind of fault.
What is a strike-slip fault?
500
This is how earthquakes are measured.
What is richter scale?
500
Pryoclastic eruptions are the most dangerous. This type of volcano is least likely to see this type of eruption.
What is shield volcanoes?
