Shield Volcano C 100
28
What is pyroclastic material? C 200
29

34
Composite Volcanoes C 400
35
C 500 What type of volcano is this?
36
A Cinder Cone Volcano C 500
37
Near which type of plate boundary can the youngest crust be found? D 100
38
Divergent D 100
39
Which type of tectonic plate is the densest (meaning it is heavier than an equal size chunk of the other type of plate)? D 200
40
Oceanic crust D 200
41
What type of plate boundary is this? D 300
42
Transform Boundary D 300
43
What is the boundary shown below? What is the zone called in which one plate is going below the other? D 400
44

45
What are 3 pieces of evidence Wegener used to support his Continental Drift hypothesis? Bonus: (100 points)What evidence was missing that caused his idea to be ignored? D 500
46
Evidence for Continental Drift: Continent's shapes appear to fit together like puzzle pieces. Fossils of the same critters are found on different continents. Matching climate evidence was found on different continents. Mountain and rock formations match on different continents. Missing Evidence: Wegener could not explain HOW the continents were moving. (When the Mid-Atlantic Ridge was discovered 30 years after he died his idea was incorporated into the Plate Tectonic Theory.) D 500
47
E 100 According to the Law of Superposition, the sediment layers on the bottom are always: A.Younger B.Older C.Best D.Worst E.Cleaner F.Dirtier
48
Older E 100
49
E 200 How do large volcanic eruptions affect global climate?
50
Ash and gases released from the eruption block sunlight and reduce global temperatures. E 200
51
E 300 If you were to measure the average distance that tectonic plates move each year, which of the following units would a scientist use to record that distance? A.Meters B.Centimeters C.Inches D.Kilometers E.Miles
52
Centimeters E 300
53
E 400 Magma forms at divergent plate boundaries because pressure on the rock deep below the surface near the mantle decreases. The decrease in pressure allows the hot rocks to ____________.
54
Melt E 400
55
E 500 What is the process called in which sediment layers build up over a long period of time.
56
Deposition E 500
