Question
Answer
List the zones of the earth   core, mantle, crust  
🗑
upper mantle and crust   lithosphere  
🗑
Earth’s crust divided into number of plates that move over time, form by seafloor spreading, etc., marine plates dense and go under continental plates at subduction zones, earthquakes and volcanoes associated with plate boundaries   Plate tectonics  
🗑
Pangea   “supercontinent” formed by convergence of Earth’s plates  
🗑
plates move apart, found at spreading ocean ridges   divergent plate boundary  
🗑
two plates collide, denser oceanic plate moves under continental plate, called a subduction zone as oceanic plate is subducted beneath continental plate, where earthquakes occur   convergent plate boundary  
🗑
two plates slide past one another   transform plate boundary  
🗑
movement of Earth along a fault   earthquake  
🗑
where earthquake begins   focus  
🗑
seismic waves   S (move slowly, shear waves, move up/down), P (move rapidly, compression waves, move side to side),  
🗑
giant sea wave produced by earthquake   tsunami  
🗑
molten rock   magma  
🗑
magma once it reaches Earth’s surface   lava  
🗑
List the parts of a volcano   magma chamber, pipe, vent, crater  
🗑
this type of volcano has gentle slopes, non-violent eruptions   shield volcano  
🗑
this type of volcano has steep slides, explosive eruptions   cinder cone volcano  
🗑
this type of volcano has large, explosive eruptions (Mt. St. Helens)   composite volcano  
🗑
Three factors that influence volcano eruption types   chemistry, temperature, pressure  
🗑
