Put the layers of the Earth in order from the OUTSIDE to the INSIDE

This word refers to the outer part of the Earth, or tectonic plates.  It includes the crust and the thin solid part of the outer mantle.

This word refers to the part of the mantle that has convection currents that move the tectonic plates

This layer of the Earth is made of SOLID iron and nickel

This layer of the Earth is made of LIQUID iron and nickel

There is convection in the mantle that causes tectonic plate movement.  There is also convection in THIS layer, which causes our magnetic field (without it, we would all die)

The circular movement of a fluid that moves heat is called...

Continental drift was first studied by German Scientist

Wagner hypothesized that all continents were once one giant land mass he called...

Which of these supports the theory of continental drift?

Plate boundaries where two tectonic plates are moving toward each other is called

The point underground from which an earthquake originates is called the

The edges of moving tectonic plates often cause

What is the fewest number of seismographic stations needed to triangulate the epicenter of an earthquake?

Which would you most likely find at a convergent ocean-continental boundary?
