DAY-1 CLASS-7 SOCIAL L-2 QUIZZ

What is the main topic of the learning material shown in the image?

• Our Changing Earth

• The Solar System

• Ancient Civilizations

• Weather Patterns

According to the image, which two main concepts will students learn about?

• Plate Tectonics and Endogenic Forces

• Photosynthesis and Respiration

• Weather and Climate

• Oceans and Rivers

How do endogenic forces contribute to shaping Earth's surface?

• By causing movements within the Earth that form mountains and valleys

• By eroding rocks through wind and water

• By creating weather patterns

• By forming clouds

Explain how tectonic plates function and interact with each other.

• They move slowly over the mantle, sometimes colliding, pulling apart, or sliding past each other, causing earthquakes and forming landforms

• They float on water and create ocean currents

• They remain completely still and never change position

• They only exist in the atmosphere

Which of the following best describes the lithosphere?

• The solid outer layer of Earth, including the crust and upper mantle

• All water on Earth, including oceans and rivers

• The gaseous layer surrounding Earth

• All living organisms on Earth

How fast do tectonic plates typically move?

• A few centimeters per year

• Several meters per day

• One kilometer per hour

• Ten meters per second

Why do tectonic plates fit together like a jigsaw puzzle?

• Because the lithosphere is divided into large sections

• Because they are made of the same material

• Because they are all the same size

• Because they never move

What is the main source of heat that causes the movement of Earth's plates?

• The Sun's energy

• Extreme heat from Earth's inner and outer core

• Ocean currents

• Wind patterns

How do convection currents in the mantle affect the movement of tectonic plates?

• They stop the plates from moving

• They act as a conveyor belt, slowly moving the plates above

• They break the plates apart instantly

• They cool down the plates

Explain how the process of convection currents leads to the movement of Earth's plates. Use evidence from the diagram and text to support your answer.

• Convection currents cause the plates to freeze in place.

• Convection currents create wind that moves the plates.

• Convection currents, caused by heat from the core, move hot magma upward and cooler magma downward, creating a conveyor belt effect that moves the plates.

• Convection currents only affect the outer core, not the plates.
