  • Q2
    Convection is the transfer of heat by the movement of fluids. This is caused by different temperatures and densities.
    False
    True
    30s
  • Q3
    What type of boundary is shown below? What happens at this type of boundary?
    Question Image
    transform boundary - earthquakes
    convergent boundary - mountains form from the collision
    divergent boundary - valley rift is formed
    30s
  • Q4
    This scientist proposed the idea of sea-floor spreading.
    Harry Hammond Hess
    Alfred Wegener

  • Q5
    Which four are the reasons for earths layers being different?
    size, color, composition, height
    temperature, composition, color, depth
    composition, temperature, size, pressure

  • Q6
    This 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).

  • Q8
    Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact from a heat source to another object/thing.
    False
    True
    30s
  • Q9
    This scientist proposed that the lithosphere is broken into separate sections called plates. He combined the ideas from continental drifting, sea-floor spreading, and plates.

  • Q10
    Which boundary is shown below? What happens at this type of boundary?
    Question Image
    transform boundary - earthquakes
    divergent boundary - valley rift is formed
    convergent boundary - mountains form from the collision (or subduction can take place with continental/oceanic AND oceanic/oceanic)
    30s
  • Q11
    Radiation is the transfer of energy through empty space or waves. There is no direct contact between the heat source and object.
    False
    True
    30s
