- Q1____________ _____________ flow in the mantle. It moves the lithosphere like a conveyor belt.Seismic wavesConvection currents30s
- Q2Convection is the transfer of heat by the movement of fluids. This is caused by different temperatures and densities.FalseTrue30s
- Q3What type of boundary is shown below? What happens at this type of boundary?transform boundary - earthquakesconvergent boundary - mountains form from the collisiondivergent boundary - valley rift is formed30s
- Q4This scientist proposed the idea of sea-floor spreading.Harry Hammond HessAlfred WegenerJ. Tuzo Wilson30s
- Q5Which four are the reasons for earths layers being different?size, color, composition, heighttemperature, composition, color, depthcomposition, temperature, size, pressure30s
- Q6This scientists suggested that at one point in time, all of the continents were joined together in a landmass called Pangea. The continents have since drifted apart (continental drift).Alfred WegenerHarry Hammond HessJ. Tuzo Wilson30s
- Q7What type of boundary is shown below? What happens at this type of boundary?convergent boundary - mountains form from the collisiontransform boundary - earthquakesdivergent boundary - valley rift is formed30s
- Q8Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact from a heat source to another object/thing.FalseTrue30s
- Q9This scientist proposed that the lithosphere is broken into separate sections called plates. He combined the ideas from continental drifting, sea-floor spreading, and plates.J. Tuzo WilsonHarry Hammond HessAlfred Wegener30s
- Q10Which boundary is shown below? What happens at this type of boundary?transform boundary - earthquakesdivergent boundary - valley rift is formedconvergent boundary - mountains form from the collision (or subduction can take place with continental/oceanic AND oceanic/oceanic)30s
- Q11Radiation is the transfer of energy through empty space or waves. There is no direct contact between the heat source and object.FalseTrue30s
- Q12The ___________________ layer of earth is solid rock and is where we (people) live. The ocean ______________ is made mainly of basalt. The continental _________________ is made mostly of granite.mantlecrustcore30s
- Q13The ______________ layer of earth is solid, hot rock that is about 40 kilometers beneath the surface. It has three layers.crustcoremantle30s
- Q14What are the three layers of the mantle?lithosphere, asthenosphere, lower mantletop, middle, bottomcrust, mantle, core30s
- Q15The ________________ core is made of molten metal. The ___________________ core is a dense ball of solid metal.inner, outerouter, inner30s
