The world’s earthquakes, (eruptions, volcanoes), and mountain ranges are
not randomly distributed over the Earth’s surface. They are both situated
at the same (location, place) near the (center, edges) of the continents.
(a)
Plate Tectonics is a (law, theory) which suggests that Earth’s crust is made
up of plates that constantly (move, rotate) and interact in various ways,
thus, producing earthquakes, mountains, volcanoes,
(a)
The plate that pushes the Philippine Plate towards the (Eurasian, Indo-
Australian) plate is the Pacific Plate
(a)
here are two kinds of crust: (Continental, Crustal) plates which is
thicker but less dense, and Oceanic plates which are thinner but (compact,
denser)
(a)
Plates are large pieces of the upper few hundred kilometers of Earth that
move as a single unit as it (floats, moves) above the mantle
(a)
lithosphere is subdivided into portions called plates. (Continents,Plates)
(a)
The crust and a part of the upper mantle make up the (continent,
lithosphere)
(a)
Which theory states that the entire crust is broken and is continuously moving?
A. Continental Drift C. Seafloor Spreading
B. Plate Tectonics D. Titanic Theory
. Other terms for molten rock
(a)
connvergent boundary is formed between Caribbean plate and (a) plate.
What type of plate boundary is formed between two plates sliding past each
other?
(a)
It is the process wherein the leading edge of one plate bends downward into
the mantle beneath the other plate.
(a)
It is consists of Earth’s crust and upper mantle
(a)
What geologic feature is formed between the diverging oceanic plates?
(a)
It is a transform fault boundary between the Pacific plate and North
American plate which extends through Californi
(a)
Movement of the plate boundary causes shaking of the Earth’s surface called
(a) .
Philippine islands were originated from (a) boundary.
What type of plate boundary occurs between the Eurasian plate and the
North American plate?
(a)
he type of boundary between Pacific plate and Antarctic plate is
(a) (convergent, divergent) boundary.
(Convergent, Divergent) is the type of boundary between
Australian plate and African plate
(a)
1. Pacific plate and Nazca plate formed (a) (convergent, divergent)
boundary.
San Andreas Fault is a transform fault boundary found in (a) (South
American plate, North American plate)
Philippine plate moves toward (a) (Australian plate, Eurasian
plate) at the convergent boundary.
fault boundaries are plates sliding past or slipping past each
other.
Transform fault
______boundaries are formed when two plates move toward each
other. The oceanic plate bends downward at the subduction zone. This
occurs in two oceanic plates: convergent boundary and continental plate-
oceanic plate convergent boundary. Oceanic plate sinks because it is
denser than the continental plate. In the case of convergence of two
oceanic plates, the older plate sinks. Whereas in the convergence of two
continental plates, they collide and buckle up forming mountain ranges.
No subduction occurs in this type of convergence.
Convergent
Divergent
ccording to the Plate Tectonic Theory, the Earth’s lithosphere consists of the
crust and upper mantle that move slowly and constantly over time. This movement
causes the formation of plate boundaries namely: divergent, convergent, and
transform fault boundaries.
true
false
refer to plates that separate and move apart in
opposite directions forming new lithosphere - the young seafloor. This
either occurs at mid-ocean ridges (seafloor spreading) or at rifted
continental margins (rift valley
Divergent boundaries
Convergent boundarie
There are two types of crusts:
continental crust
oceanic crust
thicker but less dense
dense,types of crusts:
the continental crust
which is thinner and denser.
oceanic crust
The (a) is made up of the crust and upper part of the
mantle.

are the lines at the edges of the different pieces of the
lithosphere.

A. tectonic force
B. gravitational force
C. radiation
D. convection current

from Africa in what direction
13. At the convergent plate boundary, _______________.
D. plates side past one another
