| First Layer | Mantle
🗑
|
||||
| Mantle Composed | Dense Rock
🗑
|

| Convection Currents | Travel Thru the Asthenosphere
🗑
|

| Convection Currents (create Movement) | Which shifts the Tectonic Plates
🗑
|
||||
| 3 Categories of Plate Boundaries | Convergent, Divergent and Transform
🗑
|
||||
| Convergent Boundaries | Converge or move together (Collide)
🗑
|
||||
| Convergent Boundaries | Subduction as they submerse or drive down one of the plates - Sinking of Land Eathquake, sinking of crust to expose magma volcanic
🗑
|
||||
| Convergent Boundaries | Create the Ring of Fire and are of great seismic and volcanic activity
🗑
|
||||

| Divergent Boundaries | Diverto or Move the plates away from one Another
🗑
|
||||
| Divergent Boundaries | Are typically with Ocean Plates
🗑
|
||||
| Deep Valleys | Ocean Floor aka 'rifts
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| transform Plate Boundaries | Plates Sliding by one another
🗑
|
||||
| Site of Great ? | Friction as the plates slide grinding past one another
🗑
|
||||
| Grinding causes stress | leads to landslides
🗑
|
||||
| San Andreas Fault | is a transform plate boundary
🗑
|
||||
| Grinding can cause ground waves | which lead to earthquakes
