2
$100 Answer The thinner, denser type of crust.
3
$100 Question What is oceanic crust?
4
$200 Answer The rigid layer is made up of
the crust and upper portion of the mantle.
5
$200 Question What is the lithosphere?
6
$300 Answer A method scientists use to indirectly
study the interior of the Earth.
7
$300 Question What are seismic waves/Earth’s magnetic field?
8
$400 Answer The dense layer of solid iron and nickel.
9
$400 Question What is the inner core?
10
$500 Answer The most massive of all of Earth’s layers.
11
$500 Question What is the mantle?
12
$100 Answer The direct transfer of energy through space.
13
$100 Question What is radiation?
14
$200 Answer A type of heat transfer between materials
that are in contact.
15
$200 Question What is conduction?
16
$300 Answer Measure of how much mass there is
in a volume of a substance.
17
$300 Question What is density?
18
$400 Answer The transfer of heat by the
movement of a fluid (liquid or gas).
19
$400 Question What is convection?
20
$500 Answer Convection currents are found
in these two layers of the Earth (be specific!)
21
$500 Question What is the outer core and mantle (asthenosphere)?
22
$100 Answer The last supercontinent landmass.
23
$100 Question What is Pangaea?
24
$200 Answer He was one of the first to
propose the theory of Continental Drift.
25
$200 Question Who is Alfred Wegener?
26
$300 Answer The reason the continental drift hypothesis
was initially rejected by the scientific community.
27
$300 Question What is no explanation for a force
that can move continents?
28
$400 Answer Any trace of an ancient organism
that has been preserved in rock.
29
$400 Question What is a fossil?
30
$500 Answer All three main pieces of evidence
that support continental drift.
31
$500 Question What is evidence from land features,
fossils, and climate.
32
$100 Answer Location of sea-floor spreading.
33
$100 Question What are mid-ocean ridges?
34
$200 Answer Process by which ocean floor sinks beneath a deep-ocean trench and back into the mantle.
35
$200 Question What is subduction?
36
$300 Answer Causes the ocean floor to
move like conveyer belts, creating new land.
37
$300 Question What is sea-floor spreading?
38
$400 Answer The device used to map the mid-ocean ridges.
39
$400 Question What is sonar?
40
$500 Answer The three main pieces of evidence
that support sea-floor spreading.
41
$500 Question What are evidence of molten material, magnetic stripes,
and drilling samples that show old and new rock?
42
$100 Answer Separate sections of the lithosphere.
43
$100 Question What are tectonic plates?
44
$200 Answer Type of boundary where one plate can sink beneath
the other.
45
$200 Question What is a convergent boundary?
46
$300 Answer Type of boundary where rift valleys form.
47
$300 Question What is a divergent boundary?
48
$400 Answer Type of boundary where two plates slip past each other, moving in opposite directions.
49
$400 Question What is a transform boundary?
50
$500 Answer The types of plates that collide to form large, folded
mountain ranges.
51
$500 Question What are continental plates?
52

the idea of sea-floor spreading.
53
Final Jeopardy Answer Who is Harry Hess?
