A force that opposes the motion of objects.
force
kinetic energy

friction
Describes objects that bend, stretch, or flow when a force is applied to them.
brittle
ductile
rigid
slender
What variableS might cause a normally brittle rock to bend, flow, or stretch like the in the image shown?
temperature
pressure
color
conductivity
Describes objects that break easily when a force is applied to them.
plastic
ductile
soft
brittle
A process that occurs at mid-ocean ridges, where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity and then gradually moves away from the ridge.
convergence
trench-creation
seafloor spreading
rift valley formation
A deep gorge formed on the ocean floor when an oceanic plate moves beneath a continental plate.
rift valley
mountain range
volcanic island arc
trench
Which best shows the oceanic Nazca plate and South American plate boundary?
What surface feature would you expect to see at a plate boundary between two converging oceanic plates?
volcanic island chain
continental mountain chain
mid-ocean ridge
rift valley
What surface feature would you expect to see at a plate boundary between two diverging oceanic plates?
extensive volcanic island chain
continental mountain chain
mid-ocean ridge
rift valley
The more force required to rupture the fault, then...
...the greater the resulting earthquake
...the smaller the resulting earthquake
...the harder to find the fault
...the higher the mountains formed on one side of the fault
The San Andreas Fault is a transform fault (strike-slip). What two features/events would you expect to see at this fault?
earthquakes
high continental mountains
wrinkling or slight ridging along the fault
trench
Which image best demonstrates the Southeast Indian Ridge?
Which options (A, B, and C) DO NOT demonstrate the model plate boundary shown?
A
B
C
Transform faults often occur along the jagged portions of diverging plate boundaries. Which area of the model shows the transform portions of the plate boundary?
The red, more vertical lines
The purple, more horizontal lines
The black line with triangles indicating subduction
Divergent plate boundaries on land result in
continental rift valleys
continental mountains
mid-ocean ridges
island arcs
Convergent oceanic plate boundaries result in
continental rift valleys
continental mountains
mid-ocean ridges
volcanic island arcs
Transform boundaries in the ocean result in an offset of the larger ridge being formed. On land, transform boundaries often create visible
faults
volcanoes
trenches
mountains
These large cycles are part of the reason why Earth's tectonic plates move
conduction sinks
convection cells
conduction cells
convection rivers
