Plate Tectonics
Hot on the Inside
100
Wegener named his 'Super Continent' this term which means "All Lands".
What is Pangaea?
100

They are the three categories of rocks

What are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic?

100
It is the point directly above the focus of an earthquake.
What is the epicenter?
100

This boundary is considered a strike slip fault.

What is a transform boundary?

100
These are Earth's layers in order beginning from the inside.
What is the inner core, outer core, mantle, crust.
200
This is the name given to Wegener's hypothesis.
What is Continental Drift?
200

This type of rock and subclass are formed from erosion, deposition, compaction, and cementation and they may contain fossils.

What is clastic sedimentary rock?

200
Earthquakes usually occur at this type of boundary.
What is a transform boundary? (strike slip fault)
200

Large sections of the lithosphere.

What are lithospheric plates?

200
This is the only liquid layer of Earth.
What is the outer core?
300
These are three types of evidence that support Wegener's idea.
What are climate change, fossils, and land forms?
300
This category of rock forms from high heat and pressure.
What is metamorphic?
300
The Hawaiian Islands formed over this feature.
What is a hot spot?
300

They are the three types of boundaries

What are convergent, divergent and transform boundaries?

300
It is a section of the mantle just below the lithosphere
What is the asthenosphere?
400
Continental Drift gave rise to this theory.
What is Plate Tectonics?
400

It is a term given to igneous rocks that form when magma hardens beneath Earth's surface.

What is intrusive igneous rock?

400
The Cascade Mountains formed because of this type of boundary.
What is a convergent boundary where subduction occurs.
400

It's an area where the more dense crust gets pushed down underneath the less dense crust when plates converge.

What is a subduction zone?

400
This inner core is made up mostly of these metals.
What is iron and nickel?
500
They are the names of the dinosaur and plant fossils found in S. America and Africa that support Wegener's hypothesis.
What is the mesosaurus and glossopteris?
500
They are three types of sedimentary rock.
What is clastic, organic, and chemical?
500
These are the three types of volcanoes.
What are shield, cinder cone, and composite volcanoes?
500

This is the force that moves the lithospheric plates as well as the location of that force.

What are convection currents in the asthenosphere?

500
Oceanic crust consists mostly of this type of rock?
What is igneous rock, basalt?
