|---|---|
| asthenosphere | slow - moving layer beneath earths crust |
| lithosphere | earths rigid outer layer made up of the crust and solid upper mantel that is broken into plates that move on top of the asthenosphere |
| mantel | layer beneath earths crust that is mostly less solid than the crust |
| outer core | liquid metal layer surrounding earths inner core |
| inner core | the solid metal center of earth with high pressure and temperature |
| geosphere | The rock portion of earth made up of our different layers |
| crust | the thin hard outer layer of earth |
| which of the following correctly lists earths layers from the innermost layer to the outer most layer | Inner core , outer core , mantle , crust |
| as you travel further into the earth the pressure | increases |
| which layer is mostly composed of nickel and iron | inner core |
| the movement of earths plates is cause by convection currents found within which layer | mantle |
| which layer is made of the three different types of rock igneous metamorphic and sedimentary | crust |
| which of the following correctly lists earths layers from coldest to hottest | inner core outer core mantle crust |
| which layer is responsible for the magnetic field | outer core |
| who made the continental drift theory | Alfred Wenger |
| three reasons for heat within Earth's interior | collisions gravity radioactive decay |
| evidence that supports continental drift theory | puzzle like fit fossils glaciers rocks and mountains |
| three pieces of evidence supporting sea floor spreading | older rocks farther from mid ocean ridge pillow lava magnetic reversal |
| what is magnetic reversal | the process where the Earth's magnetic north and south poles swap positions |
| how is magnetic reversal evidence to sea floor spreading | mid ocean showing magnetic reversals |
| what boundary is a normal fault | divergent |
| what boundry is reverse fault | convergent |
| what boundary is a strike slip fault | transform |
| what type of force does strike slip have | shear |
| is strike slip vertical or horizontal | horizontal |
| strike slips earth quake type | shallow |
| type of force that normal fault has | tension |
| is normal fault vertical or horizontal | vertical |
| normal fault type of earth quake | shallow and intermediate |
| reverse fault type of force | compression |
| is reverse fault vertical or horizontal | vertical |
| reverse fault type of earth quake | all( shallow intermediate deep) |
