Earthquakes

Think about it: What is going on in this picture? What do you see?

Pangea A supercontinent from around 300 million years ago. This is a theory that scientists can’t prove but they have lots of evidence

Evidence Evidence examples: Continents fit together like a puzzle. The same fossils have been found on different continents.

Are earthquakes constructive? Earthquakes can form mountains and other landforms

Are Earthquakes Destructive? Earthquakes can destroy the land and cause faults to form. Earthquakes can cause volcanoes to erupt and tsunamis to happen

What is an Earthquake? Earthquakes are the sudden release of energy as the Earth’s plates move. http://video.nationalgeogr aphic.com/video/inside- earthquake http://video.nationalgeogr aphic.com/video/news/wil d-chronicles/panda-quake- wcvin?source=relatedvideo

What is an Earthquake? An earthquake often happens near a fault which is a break in the Earth’s crust. Earthquakes magnitude are measured using a Richter Scale. 1-10

Tsunamis Earthquakes can cause tsunamis to happen. Tsunamis are a series of enormous waves created by an underwater disturbance. Brainpop

Divergent boundary- occurs when two plates move apart (divide) Types of plates video- http://youtu.be/dkELENdZukI Divergent boundary- occurs when two plates move apart (divide) Transform boundary- occurs when two plates slide against each other

Convergent boundary- occurs when two plates are pushed together (collide)

Transform boundary- occurs when two plates slide against each other
