Which of the following resulted to the formation of new crust from magma that rises to the earth’s surface between two plate boundaries?

This occurs when the plates are pulled apart causing either an elongation or a breakage in the crust.

This occurs when the plates are pushed toward each other causing them to crash.

This occurs when the Earth’s crust bends away from a flat surface.

This happens when the Earth’s crust completely breaks and slides past each other.

When plates move slide past each other; two plates move/slide in opposite direction formation of Faults.

He is the originator of continental drift theory.

In what part of the earth does magmatism happen?

What do you call the semi-liquid hot molten rocks found on the surface of earth once the volcano erupts?

During partial melting, which of the following minerals melt last?

What are the two most abundant elements in magma?

What will happen to the temperature of rocks during partial melting?

This is a process under the earth’s crust where formation and movement of magma occur.

Conduction in mantle happens when heat is transferred from hotter molten rocks to the Earth’s cold crust. What process is being described?

Which of the following is NOT true about metamorphism?

How do temperature and pressure affect metamorphism?

High silica content and gray in color.

These are large minerals.

These are very small minerals.

When two tectonic plates collide, the continental crust usually rise up over the oceanic crust. What is the reason behind this?
