Plate Tectonics Types of Faults Type answer here Major Geological Events Caused by Moving Plates Other Interesting Facts Some Names Of Earth’s Plates

Divergent Faults Describe a divergent faults Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) Give an example where one exists in the world today A picture of a divergent fault

Convergent Faults Describe a convergent faults Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) Give an example where one exists in the world today A picture of a convergent fault

Transform Faults Describe a Transform fault Explain the geological results (Ex/ mountains, valley, volcanoes, earthquake, etc.) Give an example where one exists in the world today A picture of a transform fault

Earthquake and Volcanoes Characteristics of Volcanoes Characteristics of Earthquakes How they are alike

Label the Tectonic Plates as divergent or convergent Drag and drop to label for divergent plates Drag and drop to label for convergent plates

Label the longitude and latitude of 20 earthquakes and 20 volcanoes
