QuestionAnswer
whats is the difference between a continent and tectonic plate continents are inside plates, plates hold continents
theory of plate technonics Divergent in this movement the plates move apart the magma from the interior of the earth flows toward the surface
how do plates move? The heat from radioactive processes within the planet's interior causes the plates to move,
how are igneous rocks formed when hot, molten rock crystallizes and solidifies
sedimentary rocks how are formed tiny rocks molded together by pressure
metamorphic rocks how are formed when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure
rock cycle Weathering & Erosion, Transportation, Deposition, Compaction & Cementation, Metamorphism, Rock Melting.
why do rocks change Earth's internal heat, pressure from tectonic processes, and the effects of water, wind, gravity, and biological (including human) activities.
plate bounderies divergent, convergent, and transform
divergent how move away from eachother
convergent how move when plates move towards each other and collide
transform how move tectonic plates slide horizontally past each other
divergent what happens earthquakes are common and magma rises from the Earth's mantle, solidifying to create new oceanic crust.
convergent what happens mountains, volcanos, or subduction zones that form large trenches
transform what happens shallow earthquakes, large lateral displacement of rock, and a broad zone of crustal deformation.
what are the attributes of minerales hardness, luster, color, streak, specific gravity, cleavage, fracture, and tenacity.
