100
the 3 types of volcanoes
What is shield, cone, composite?
100
the 3 seismic waves in order of arrival
What is p wave, s wave, surface wave
100
this created the Hawaiian Islands
What is hot spot?
100
This is created at a convergent continental-continental plate boundary.
What is folded mountains?
100
The outermost layer of Earth.
What is crust?
200
this volcano has the most violent eruptions
What is composite?
200
this wave only travels through solids
What is s-wave?
200
scientists believe this causes the plates to move
What is convection in the mantle?
200
This land feature is created at a convergent oceanic-continental plate boundary.
What is volcano?
200
plastic flowing layer below the solid part of Earth's mantle
What is asthenosphere?
300
when magma reaches the earth's surface
What is lava?
300
a minimum number of 3 seismic stations is needed to determine this
What is exact location of the epicenter?
300
this is created at a divergent plate boundary on the land
What is rift valley?
300
this is where the sea floor is the youngest.
What is mid ocean ridge?
300
the crust and upper part of the mantle
What is lithosphere?
400
Earthquakes commonly occur at this plate boundary.
What is transform plate boundary?
400
this is created at an oceanic oceanic convergent plate boundary
What is volcanic island arc?
400
this is where the seafloor is the oldest and is eventually recycled back into the mantle
What is at the deep sea trenches?
400
The innermost layer of Earth
What is inner core?
500
this is composed of clouds of gas, ash and tephra
What is pyroclastic flow?
500
the instrument that records the waves of an earthquake
What is seismometer?
500
this is the evidence for continental drift
What is ancient climates, fossils, rock formations, matching coastlines?
500
what plate boundary is Earth neither created or destroyed
What is transform boundary?
500
this is located above the inner core
What is outer core?
