- 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
30s - Q2
The mantle and asthenosphere are considerably colder than the lithosphere, and the core is much hotter than the mantle.
FALSE
TRUE
30s - Q3
Crust-mantle boundary: 3,700°C
TRUE
FALSE
30s - 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
30s - 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
30s - Q8
MAGMA melts approximately
______ km below the Earth surface.
50
70
40
60
30s - 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
30s - 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
30s - Q15
Intrusive rocks ALSO CALLED plutonism.
TRUE
FALSE
