2 4/11/2014 Who was Alfred Wegener? What evidence did Alfred Wegener have?

3 I can explain the processes that shape the Earth.
Today’s Goal I can explain the processes that shape the Earth.

4 Today’s Plan REVIEW Finish projects

5 Plate Tectonics (convection, evidence) Rock Cycle Rocks vs Minerals
District CFA is over: Layers of the Earth Plate Tectonics (convection, evidence) Rock Cycle Rocks vs Minerals

6 Name the Layers A B C D

7 Which layers are solid? A B C D

8 Which layers are partially solid?
B C D

9 Which layers are liquid?
B C D

10 Name the Layers Lithosphere A B Asthenosphere

11 In which layer does convection occur?
B C D

12 Convection happens in the ASTHENOSPHERE

13 Let’s take a closer look at how this works:
COOL by crust Heat gives particles more energy and they spread apart becoming less dense Particles lose energy, slow down and move together, becoming more dense HEAT from core

14 Which of the following is NOT evidence for Plate Tectonics Theory?
Earthquakes and Volcanoes Nuclear fusion Matching fossils on different continents Hurricanes and Typhoons Tornadoes The way the continents fit together Matching rock layers on different continents

15 Which of the following is NOT evidence for Plate Tectonics Theory?

19 Plate Boundaries Three types of Plate Boundaries:
DIVERGENT: Where two plates move APART. -CONVERGENT: Where two plates come TOGETHER.

20 Plate Boundaries Types of Plate Boundaries:
TRANSFORM: Where two plates slide past each other, moving in opposite directions.

22 Name which plate boundary causes each landform:
Earthquakes Volcanoes Seafloor Spreading Mountains Trenches CONVERGENT DIVERGENT TRANSFORM CONVERGENT DIVERGENT DIVERGENT CONVERGENT DIVERGENT CONVERGENT
