Layers and Plates

Same rocks in Texas as those in Antarctica, this is proof of-

• coastal erosion
• plate tectonics
• ocean currents
• glacial melting

Sand Andreas Fault formed at this type of boundary-

• Transform Boundary
• Convergent Boundary
• Divergent Boundary
• Hot Spot

This is an example of -

• convergent
• divergent
• transform

This is an example of -

• convergent

Fossils, landforms, glaciers, and puzzle were all evidence of-

• big bang theory
• tectonic plate theory
• sea floor spreading theory
• volcanic theory

This is the theory that states that all the continents started as a single massive continent and have been MOVING apart for over 200 million years and the man that proposed it.

• The Big Bang Theory, Einstein
• The Pangea Theory, Hutton
• The Tectonic Plate Theory, Darwin
• The Continental Drift Theory, Wegner

This is the driving force behind the movement of tectonic plates.

• Mantle convection currents
• Oceanic convection currents
• Atmospheric convection currents
• Solar convection currents

What is a tectonic plate?

• A peice of the earths crust
• A peice of the mantle
• A peice of the core
• A peice of the whole world

What is the name of the layer that contains the uppermost mantle and crust

• Asthenosphere
• Mesosphere
• Lithosphere
• Transosphere

This layer of Earth is the thickest part

• crust
• outer core
• mantle
• inner core
