Tectonics

According to the diagram what type of plate movement and crustal feature are formed between the Eurasian and Indian plates?

• The Indian plate diverging from the Eurasian plate forms a trench
• The Indian plate converging with the Eurasian plate forms a mountain Range
• The Indian plate subduction with the Eurasian plate forms a trench
• The Indian plate transforming with the Eurasian plate forms a mountain range

Which statement does not describe subduction zones?

• Old crust is recycled into Earth's Mantle
• Most Earthquakesand volcanoes occur at these boundaries 
• Mountain building occurs at these boundaries 
• New crust forms by sea floor spreading

What evidence do scientists have that substantiate the fact that the Earth is broken up into moving plates?

• TRhe erosion caused by a moving glacier
• The stable positions of the continents
• The creation of new ocean water on Earth
• The creation of new landforms, such as mountains, on Earth

which Statement indicates an advantage for this model?

• It represents all plate as having equal densities
• It provides the directions of movement for each plate bounder
• It shows the crustal features found at each type of boundary
• It shows the edges of the plate boundaries as smooth surfaces

Seafloor spreading cause the continents of South America and Africa to move further apart each year. What type of plate boundary causes this crustal feature?

• Subduction zone
• Transform boundary
• Convergent boundary
• Divergent boundary

What phenomenon are scientists trying to predict by studying this plate boundary?

• The occurrence of taco sales
• The emergence of mountains between the plates
• The occurrence of the next Earthquake
• The creation of a new volcano

What crustal feature is most likely found between the South American and African plates?

• Mountain
• Trench
• Ocean Ridge
• Fault
