  • Q1

    Earth was hot when it formed. A lot of Earth’s heat was generated during its early formation. This internal heat energy is called Primordial Heat

    TRUE

    FALSE

  • Q2

    The mantle and asthenosphere are considerably colder than the lithosphere, and the core is much hotter than the mantle.

    FALSE

    TRUE

  • Q3

    Crust-mantle boundary: 3,700°C

    TRUE

    FALSE

  • Q4

    is the direct transfer of heat from one molecule to an adjacent one.  

    EVAPORATION

    CONVECTION

    CONDUCTION

    30s
  • Q5

    Convection is typically driven by temperature differences and it is the main heat transfer that occurs at the mantle.

    FALSE

    TRUE

  • Q6

    Sunlight is a form of conduction that is radiated through space to our planet without the aid of fluids or solids.

    TRUE

    FALSE

    30s
  • Q7

    There are no particles between the Sun and the Earth so it CANNOT travel by conduction or by convection.

    TRUE

    FALSE

  • Q8

    MAGMA melts approximately

    ______ km below the Earth surface.

    50

    70

    40

  • Q9

    ____________________All other things being equal, every mineral has a distinct melting point. In the mantle, heat is brought upward by convection.

    MELTING POINT

    TEMPERATURE

    CONDENSATION

  • Q10

    Pressure- All other things being equal, the greater the pressure, the less likely materials are to melt.

    FALSE

    TRUE

    30s
  • Q11

    Volatile substances - Generally, the addition of substances like water or CO2 to a mineral lowers its melting point.

    TRUE

    FALSE

    30s
  • Q12

    Rocks from the lithosphere melt due to the hot materials in the mantle. Rising mantle rocks melt due to the decreasing pressure.

    -Mantle plumes

    -Subduction zones

    -Mid-ocean ridges

    30s
  • Q13

    ACTIVE HOTSPOT (MANTLE PLUME)-Rocks in the atmosphere melt because of the rising hot mantle rocks that heat the lithosphere.

    TRUE

    FALSE

    30s
  • Q14

    PLATE SUBDUCTION ZONE- The Lithosphere (with rocks) is pulled down in the mantle which is hot.

    FALSE

    TRUE

  • Q15

    Intrusive rocks ALSO CALLED plutonism.

    TRUE

    FALSE
