Review PLATE TECTONIC S Trashketball Adapted from Ms. Reed and Ms. Bond Dac

Rules 1. Split into two teams 2. Each person will get a chance to answer a question 3. On your turn you can answer your question on your own for two shots, or with help from your team for one shot 4. If a team answers the question incorrectly, the other team has a chance to work together to answer the same question for one shot (this does not count as their turn)

Questions

Who developed the theory of Sea-Floor Spreading? Harry Hess Alfred Wegener Albert Einstein HOME

This type of heat source is transferred by direct contact. Convection Conduction Radiation HOME

This type of heat source is transferred through a heated gas or liquid. Convection Conduction Radiation HOME

This type of heat source is transferred through empty space. Convection Conduction Radiation HOME

Which is an example of convection? Heating soup Touching a hot burner Sitting near a furnace HOME

Which of the following is an example of conduction? Magma rising in the mantle Feeling the warmth from a fire Touching a hot burner HOME

Which is an example of Radiation? Boiling water Sunlight Spoon heating in the pot HOME

Which type of currents occur in the Asthenosphere? Convection Conduction Radiation HOME

Which of the following causes convection currents to occur? The core heats up magma and increases its density, so it rises. The core heats up magma and decreases its density, so it rises. The core cools down magma and increases its density, so it rises. The core cools down magma and decreases its density, so it rises. HOME

What did Alfred Wegener propose? The Lithosphere is broken into separate sections called plates. There is a mid-ocean ridge creating new ocean floor. All continents were once joined together as Pangaea and then drifted to where they are today. Convection currents are causing continents to drift HOME

What is the longest mountain rage on the sea floor called? Great Rift Valley San Andreas Fault Deep Sea Trench Mid-Ocean Ridge HOME

What feature occurs at subduction zones? Mid-Ocean Ridge Trench Rift Valley Mountain HOME

What is the process where old ocean floor melts back into the mantle? Plate Tectonics Sea-floor spreading Divergence Subduction HOME

This theory states that new ocean floor is constantly being created and recycled. Sea Floor Spreading Continental Drift Plate Tectonics Subduction HOME

The lithosphere is broken into different pieces called States Continents Plates Trenches HOME

What is the name for the theory that states that continents are in constant, slow motion that creates movement and subduction of plates? Sea floor spreading Continental Drift Plate Tectonics Convection Currents HOME

The plates float on top of which layer? Mantle Crust Lithosphere Asthenosphere HOME

Which of the following is NOT a type of plate boundary Transform Continental Convergent Divergent HOME

When two continental plates collide, which of the following could happen? Neither plate would subduct, instead they would form mountains The denser plate would subduct The less dense plate would subduct Both plates subduct due to equal densities HOME

Continental Convergent Transform Divergent HOME Which type of boundary is forming at X?

ContinentalTransform ConvergentDivergent HOME What type of boundary is forming at Z?

Two plates moving apart New floor forming Subduction Convection Currents HOME What process is occurring at Y?

TrenchMid-ocean ridge HOME PlateauValley What feature is represented at X?
