    When two tectonic plates collide, the oceanic crust usually subducts beneath the continental crust because it is

    denser than continental crust

  • 2

    Through which earth layer are S-waves NOT transmitted?

    In convergent plate boundary, thrust faults occur where forces tend to push sections of the crust together. Which shows the effect of this situation?

    Collision of plates

  • 4

    In the process of sea-floor spreading, where does molten material rise from the mantle and erupt?

    along the mid-ocean ridge

  • 5

    Which of the the following is NOT a product of destructive boundary?

    Alfred Wegener is a German scientist who hypothesized that the Earth was once made up of a single large landmass called Pangaea. What do you call to his theory?

    Continental Drift Theory

  • 7

    Glossopteris fossils were found in Antarctica. What could be the climate of this continent before?

    Tropical climate

  • 8

    What is the primary cause of volcanoes and earthquake?

    Crustal plate movement

    The occurrence of magnetic reversals can be explained through

    the magnetic patterns in magnetic rocks

  • 10

    You are an oceanographer and want to map the ocean floor on the east coast of the Philippines. As you do your study, you notice that there is a portion in the ocean floor which is relatively much deeper than the rest. What most likely is that deeper part?

    trench

  • 11

    Most geologists rejected Alfred Wegener's idea of Continental Drift Theory because______

    Wegener could not identify the force that pushes or pulls the continents.

    Which serves as the thinnest layer of the earth?

    Crust

  • 14

    All of the following are true about location of volcanoes EXCEPT

    Volcanoes are randomly distributed

    a few centimeters per year

  • 16

    Which of the following statement best describes the formation of mountain ranges?

    Mountain ranges are formed when there is collision between two continental plates.

  • 17

    Miners dig into the Earth in search for precious rocks and minerals. In which layer is the deepest explorations made by miners?

    Crust

  • 18

    What does the presence of Mesosaurus fossils tells about the initial location and positioning of South America, Africa, and Antarctica?

    It tells us that these continents were connected before

  • 19

    What clues are useful in reconstructing Pangaea?

    Fossils

  • 20

    In a hot spot, Volcano A is on top of the mantle plume, Volcano B is 10 km farther from A while volcano C is the farthest. What can you infer about the ages of the volcanoes?

    Volcano B is younger than C

  • 21

    Which of the following statement is FALSE?

    S-waves can travel through liquids

  • 22

    How do you compare the densities of the Earth's crust, mantle and core?

  • 23

    Which of the following is/are indications that the crust is spreading or splitting apart?

    rift valleys & oceanic ridges

    most are part of the Philippine Mobile Belt, except for Palawan, Mindoro, and Zamboanga

  • 26

    If you visit a place in the Pacific known to be along converging plates, which of these should you NOT expect to see?

    rift valleys

  • 27

    Why is a divergent boundary also called constructive boundary?

    Magma flows up between the plates and forms new crust

  • 28
