1. Instructions for using this template.
Remember this is Jeopardy, so where I have written “Answer” this is the prompt the students will see, and where I have “Question” should be the student’s response.
To enter your questions and answers, click once on the text on the slide, then highlight and just type over what’s there to replace it. If you hit Delete or Backspace, it sometimes makes the text box disappear.
When clicking on the slide to move to the next appropriate slide, be sure you see the hand, not the arrow. (If you put your cursor over a text box, it will be an arrow and WILL NOT take you to the right location.)

8. P wave

9. The most destructive type of seismic waves

10. Surface waves

11. What happens to the velocity of a P wave as it goes from solid to liquid?

12. Slows down

13. List the order of arrival of seismic waves

14. P, S, Surface (love then rayleigh)

15. free

16. free

17. How long does it take a p wave to travel 2000 miles?

18. 7 min

19. What time does the P wave arrive in Chicago?

25. According to this map, at what geological feature do must volcanoes occur?

26. Plate boundaries

27. The best evidence that two land areas were once connected is the discovery that both land masses
are in the same stage of succession.
have similar types of rocks and fossils.
have the same climate.
exist along the same line of longitude.

28. have similar types of rocks and fossils.

29. Scientists claim that the continents of South America and Africa were once a single landmass. All of the following observations support this claim except
the mountains on these continents have similar rocks of the same age.
B. similar fish live in the ocean off the coasts of these continents.
C. these continents appear to fit together like a puzzle
D. the same kinds of fossils have been found on these continents.

30. similar fish live in the ocean off the coasts of these continents.

31. Sea floor magnetic stripes on the Pacific sea floor tend to be wider than equivalent-age magnetic stripes on the Atlantic sea floor. This suggests that:
the Pacific Ocean is older than the Atlantic Ocean.
the Pacific Ocean is younger than the Atlantic Ocean
spreading rates in the Atlantic Ocean are slower than in the Pacific Ocean.
Spreading rates in the Pacific Ocean are slower than in the Atlantic Ocean.

32. spreading rates in the Atlantic Ocean are slower than in the Pacific Ocean.

33. All of the following help to drive plate tectonic movement except:
convection in the Low Velocity Zone
the weight of descending ocean plate in subduction zones
mountain building at continent-continent collision zones
cooling of new lithosphere along the slopes of sea floor ridges

34. mountain building at continent-continent collision zones

35. There are 12 major tectonic plates that make up the earth’s surface
There are 12 major tectonic plates that make up the earth’s surface. There are 3 major types of plate boundaries, name 1.

36. Convergent
Divergent
transform

37. Compare the densities and thickness of oceanic and continental crust

38. Oceanic – thinner, more dense Continental- thicker, less dense

39. Which graph represents temperatures inside the earth?

40. B – gets hotter as get closer to core

41. Which is accurate based on surface features?

42. 1- convection cells pulling ridge apart

43. Which table best shows the relative densities of the crustal bedrock at locations A-D?

44. 2! – B and C are oceanic crust (more dense), A and D or continental crust (less dense)

45. The oldest rocks would have come from which sample site?

46. 1 – farthest from ridge where originates

47. What happens at convergent plate boundaries?

48. Plates collide, come together

49. Where would the hottest crustal temps be found?

50. C! – where magma comes out!

51. Which graph correctly shows relative age of bedrock?

52. 4! – Shows B is older than C

53. The probable source of the Earth's magnetic field is:
plate motions
