| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| what are the 3 layers of the earth | crust, mantle, core |
| what are the 5 layers of the earth in order | lithosphere, asthenosphere,mesosphere,outer core,inner core |
| what does this cause divergent continental to continental | rift vallys |
| what does this cause divergent oceanic to oceanic | mid-ocean ridge sea floor spreading |
| what does this cause convergent continental to continental | mountain ranges |
| what does this cause convergent continental to oceanic | trench subsection-continental under oceanic |
| what does this cause convergent oceanic to oceanic | trench subduction |
| convection currents are found... | asthenosphere |
| < > | divergent |
| > < | convergent |
| lithosphere | thin outermost layer//broken into tectonic plates |
| asthenosphere | has plasticity//convection currents |
| mesosphere | strong lower part of the mantle |
| outer core | liquid layer |
| inner core | most dense//solid//hard ball made of iron |
| speed equals | speed= distance/time |
| what is a simple machine | a device that makes work easier |
| when using an inclined plane, the steeper the plane... | more force is needed |
| when using a pulley system, the more pulleys... | less force is needed |
| subduction | when a less dense plat goes beneath a more dense plate |
| transform causes | earthquakes |
| what chemical(3) layer of the earth has most of the earths mass | mantle |
| in sea floor spreading, the newest crust is closest to the... | mid ocean ridge |
