Outer Layer of Earth
What is a Crust
100
A block of lithosphere that consists of the crust and the rigid, outermost part of the mantle
What is Tectonic Plates
100
liquid rock produced under Earth's surface; igneous rocks are made of magma
What is Magma
100
Waves of energy that travel in all directions and away from an earthquake
What is a Seismic Wave

Largest Biome in the world
What is the Marine Biome
200
67% of Earth's mass and is 2900 km thick
What is the Mantle
200
Are located by studying the locations of earthquakes, volcanoes, and landforms such as mid-ocean ridges and ocean trenches
What is Tectonic Plate Boundary
200
Magma that flows onto Earth's surface; the rock that forms when lava cools and solidifies
What is Lava

This one happened in San Francisco
What is the 1906 Earthquake

300
A tool used to measure rates of tectonic plate movement on continents

This happened in 1980 and blew off its top
What is the Mt. St. Helens Volcano
300
The effects of an earthquake and how the earthquake is felt by people
What is Intensity
300
A mostly cold biome with few animals and little plants and vegetation
What is the Tundra Biome
400
The lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesophere, outer core and inner core
What is Physical Structure of Earth
400
Is the result of density differences that are caused by the flow of heat within Earth
What is the cause of Tectonic Plate Motion
400
A place where active volcanic mountains have formed around the tectonically active rim of the Pacific Ocean
What is the Ring of Fire
400
The measure of an earthquake's strength
What is Magnitude

A biome that is mainly humid and has different weather patterns with many animals and vigorous plants
What is Tropical Forest Biome
500
The area where all humans and animals and the only planet that supports life
What is the Earth
500
The theory that explains how large pieces of the Earth's outermost player move and shape
What is Plate Tectonics
500
a vent or fissure in Earth's surface through which magma and gases are expelled
What is a Volcano
500
A movement or trembling of the ground that is caused by a sudden release of energy when rocks along a fault move
What is an Earthquake
500
A large region with certain types of plant and animal communities and a specific type of climate
What is a Biome
