Worksheet time: 17mins
What natural event will MOST LIKELY occur at a convergent plate boundary?
Earthquake will occur due to the cracks caused by the collision
Nearby volcanoes will erupt from the continental plates shifting
The converging plates will meet and rise, causing the crumbled rock from the impact to form a mountain range
The updraft of wind from the colliding plate boundary will make a hurricane occur
Nothing except a slight vibration of the area near collision will happen
(Challenge Question)
Of the following names, what's the name of the person who invented the seismograph?
Al Tammer
Alexander Graham Bell
Victor G. Jackson
John Milne
Daniel Lee Columbus
What type of plate boundary is shown by the image?
Subjection Boundary
Transform Boundary
Subduction Zone
Collision Zone
(Challenge Question)
Select all possible outcomes of a convergent plate boundary listed below
Continental Crust is created and Oceanic Crust is destroyed
Major folding of plates and possible creation of fault
Updraft of seismic convection, creating an abundance of heat waves that move towards the surface
Magma from mantle rises, causing subtle amounts of magma cooling at the surface
All of the above
Draw ( to the best of your ability ) a divergent plate boundary
Describe the tectonic plate boundary shown
Divergent Plate Boundary
Convergent Plate Boundary
Transform Plate Boundary
Subduction Zone
A boundary occurs when two plates collides and usually forms mountain ranges.
(a)
(Challenge Question)
What happens during the aftermath of a divergent plate boundary?
Magma from the mantle slowly rises, cools at the surface to form new crust
An earthquake occurs to to the crust spreading, releasing pressure from the mantle, leaving a fault
Water fills the gap creating more oceanic crust; more ocean/water, or a lake
Tsunamis are MOST LIKELY a result of kind of tectonic plate boundary?
Subduction Zone
No Plate Boundaries Cause Tsunamis
Convergent
Divergent

What does a seismograph measure?
Select All That Apply
How big an earthquake is
How powerful an earthquake is
Where an earthquake is
How loud an earthquake is
How much damage the earthquake will cause
What is the name of the theory in which all continents were all one land mass?
Pangea
Seismograph
Fossilization
Pandora
Which of the following would theoretically fossilize quicker?
Velociraptor that died in Australia
Mosasaurous that died in the Pacific Ocean
T-Rex that died in North America
Pterodactyl that died on a mountain in Europe
When examining a fossil site, three fossils were found. Fossil 1 was found in Soil Type A, Fossil 2 was found in Soil Type B, and Fossil 3 was found in Soil Type C. What does this information suggest?
All fossils are the same species
Each organism died at the same time period
Continental Drift caused the movement of the fossils
Each organism died at different time periods
Each organism were eaten by the same predator
