End of the Year Assessment Review

4 Branches of Earth Systems  Astronomy  Meterology  Geology  Oceanography

What is the order of objects in the universe according to their size?  Largest  Smallest  Universe  Galaxy  Solar System  Star  Planet (ex: Earth)  Moon  Comet Planets/moons may be reversed. However, this is a generally accepted hierarchy.

What is the galaxy we live in?  Milky Way

How many stars are in our solar system?  1 (our sun)

What are the 3 main types of rock classification?  Igneous  Sedimentary  Metamorphic

These (rocks) classifications are based on……  How they were formed  Heat  Pressure  Cooling  Weathering  Erosion  Compaction

How do rocks help explain the Earth’s history?  Shows the changes in the Earth’s atmosphere/climate and different events that occurred on the Earth  Fossil  explain what creatures were present on the Earth  Rock types showed that certain continents may have been together

3 layers of the Earth  Outermost  Inner Layer  Crust  Mantle  Core

The 3 layers based upon…..  Composition  What they are made up of

5 layers of the Earth  Outermost  Innermost  Lithosphere  Asthenosphere  Mesosphere  Outer Core  Inner Core

The 5 layers are based on their…..  Physical characteristics

The outermost layer is broken into….  Tectonic Plates

3 types of plate boundaries  Transform  Divergent  Convergent

What are the physical features formed at each boundary?  Transform  faults  Divergent  Ridges  Convergent  Trenches  Mountains/Volc anoes

What are convection currents and what causes them?  They are the rising of heated material and the sinking of cooled material.  Caused by:  Unequal heating from a heat source

3 examples of where convection currents can be found  Asthenosphere  Ocean/ water  Air

What is the percentage of gases in the Earth’s atmosphere?  Nitrogen  78%  Oxygen  21 %  Other  about 1 %  Helium, Hydrogen, Carbon Dioxide, & Argon

What causes the moon to appear in different phases throughout the month?  Position of the Earth & sun

What causes the seasons?  TILT of the Earth

Hurricanes vs. Tornadoes Hurricanes  Size: Larger area covered  Speed: Sustained: 74- over 155 mph  Duration: over days  Intensity: causes flooding & wind damage  Intensity Scale: Saffir- Simpson Scale Tornadoes  Size: smaller area  Speed: Gusts: 65- over 200 mph  Duration: usually minutes  Intensity: hail & wind damage  Intensity Scale: Enhanced Fujita Scale
