upward

plate tectonic

Early observers thought continents might have been joined based on what observation?

Coastline

Wegener suggested that coal deposits discovered in Antarctica indicated that this continent was

once near the equator

What strong evidence discovered by our scientist that Earth's magnetic reversal had been happening in the past?

The magnetic reversal occurrence is supported by magnetic patterns in magnetic rocks found on the ocean floor.

The idea proposed by Alfred Wegener to explain the continental shapes and positions is known as

Continental drift

In the Mid-1900s, scientists mapped mid-ocean ridges using what?

sonars

help explain why Earth is not getting any larger even though the tectonic plates are always moving.

subduction zone

If there are MORE mid-ocean ridges than subduction zones, what happens to the ocean?

it gets larger

What can you say about the rate of movement of materials coming out from the mid-oceanic ridge and the materials sinking in the subduction zone

The rising of the materials from the ridge is faster than in the subduction zone.

What do ancient glacier scars found in rock surfaces in Africa tells about its climate in the past?

Africa was once in an area of the Earth that had a very cold climate

The Seafloor Spreading Theory states that

hot and less dense material from below the Earth's crust rises towards the surface at the mid-oceanic ridge.

Which of these is false about lithospheric plates?

They have the same thickness everywhere.

Which of the following is true about continental crust in comparison to oceanic crust? The continental crust is

thicker but less dense than the oceanic crust.

The entire lithosphere of the Earth is broken into numerous segments called

plates

How will you relate the distributions of mountain ranges to earthquake epicenters and volcanoes? Mountain ranges are found_

in places where volcanoes and/or earthquake epicenters are also situated.

Where are most volcanoes situated?

concentrated on continental edges

In a convergent plate boundary, plates move _ each oter.

Towards

Plates moving away from each other form a _ plate boundary.

divergent

Plates sliding past each other without diverging or converging form a _ boundary

transform fault

Collision of moving plates results to a _ plate boundary

convergent

A transform fault plate boundary is formed by plate _ another plate.

sliding past

A convergent plate boundary is also termed as _ plate boundary.

destructive

Refer to your answer in number 11. Convergent plate boundary is termed like that because

it destroys the crust in subduction zone

constructive

Refer to your answer in number 13. Divergent plate boundary is termed like that because

it creates new crust

A transform plate boundary is also termed as _ plate boundary.

conservative

What is the deepest part of the oceans?

trench

When two oceanic plates converge, what geologic features are formed?

volcanic island arc and trenches

What geologic feature is parallel to volcanic island arc when two oceanic plates converge?

trench

Which among the types of convergent plate boundary has no volcano formation?

two continental plates

When two oceanic plates diverge, what geologic feature is formed?

mid oceanic ridge

When two continental plates move way from each other, what geologic features is formed?

rift valley

What will develop as rift valley accumulates water?

linear sea

What is an example of mid-oceanic ridge

Mid Atlantic ridge
