1st QUARTERLY TEST IN SCIENCE 10

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

• convection currents in the mantle

• continental shifting of the earth

• heat from the inner core

• seismic activities

It is a landform that results from continental plate collisions.

• continent

• mountain

• plateau

• island

This boundary between tectonic plates does not create significant dips or protrusions in the Earth's crust, but causes powerful earthquakes when it moves.

• codivergent boundary

• convergent boundary

• transform boundary

• radial boundary

All are evidence of continental drift, Except one.

• similar fossils found in different continents

• coal deposits found in Antarctica

• matching continental margins

• people found in all continents

This is how Sierra Madre mountain range was formed.

• two continental plates collide each other

• continental plates shift away from each other

• two oceanic plates collide against each other.

• tectonic plates slide against each other.

This is the eon in the geologic time scale when life began.

• Precambrian

• Paleozoic

• Mesozoic

• Cenozoic

Scientists are able to determine the internal composition of the Earth by doing these.

• Measuring the period between separate earthquakes.

• Observing tsunamis and meteor impacts on Earth.

• Observing seismic waves and volcanic material.

• Drilling through the Earth's mantle.

The Philippine archipelago is a result of this geologic phenomena.

• formation of volcanic chain due to the downward movement of the lithosphere

• Philippine mobile belt colliding with Sundaland

• oceanic plates collision and subduction

• all of the above

This is the reason why Philippines has many active volcanoes.

• The Philippines is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire.

• The Philippines is a disaster-prone area.

• The Philippines is on the typhoon belt.

• The Philippines is in a danger zone.

This is a way to mitigate the effects of disasters.

• knowing the evacuation procedure in the building

• participating in emergency drills

• preparing an emergency kit

• all of the above
