Tectonic plates are made of?

What is the process of convection?
The process of hot material rising and cooler material sinking in circular pattems

At this boundary, plates slide past one and other and earthquakes are created.
Transform

Transform boundaries are most likely to produce what phenomenon?
Faults
9
What causes tectonic plates to move along the Earth's surface?
Convection in the mantle

What forms at a divergent boundary between two oceanic plates?
Mid-Ocean ridges
11
It is the edge where two plates meet.
Plate Boundaries
12
At this boundary, plates slide past one and other and earthquakes are created
Transform

At which plate boundary is new crust formed?
Divergent
14
Which type of plate boundary would cause folded mountains to form?
Convergent

What are the two types of crust?
Oceanic and Continental
16
What do we call the boundary where two plates collide
Convergent
17
What forms at a divergent boundary between two oceanic plates?
Mid-Ocean ridge
18
Which type of crust is denser?
Oceanic
19
In which type of boundary do the plates go away from each other?
Divergent
20
Transform boundaries are most likely to produce what phenomenon?
Faults
21
What would you be most likely to find at a convergent boundary between two pieces of continental crust?
Mountain
22
Who came up with the theory of continental drift?
Alfred Wegener
23
Continental drift is a theory that states that the continents have not always been in their present locations but in a super continent called?
Pangea
24
What does the theory of Continental Drift explain?
Continents were once together and slowly drifted to where they are today
25
Who proposed the theory of Seafloor spreading?
Harry Hess
26
Which of the following does NOT support continental drift?
Magnetic Strips
27
How does fossil evidence support Wegener's hypothesis of continental drift?
All of the above
28
Why did no one believe Wegener's theory that the continents were once together?
He could not explain HOW the continents moved
29
One possible mechanism of tectonic plate motion is ridge push. Which statement best describes ridge push?
Mantle plumes move upward below the ridge, pushing lithosphere to either side.
30
What is the topographic feature at A called?
Oceanic trench

What do we call to the zone that is referred by C in the figure above?
Subduction
32
What is the process that continually adds new crust?
Seafloor Spreading
33
The Ring of Fire is a ring of volcanoes and earthquakes that occur along what location?
Plate Boundaries
34
What happen during the process of subduction?
One plate slide under another
35
The transfer of heat by convection occurs in which states of matter.
Liquids and gases
36
What do we call to the movement of a fluid caused by differences in temperature, that transfers heat from one part of the fluid to another?
Convection
