Chapter 11 Worksheets Complete the worksheets

2 Section 11.1 Complete the graphic organizer that shows the cycle by which mountains are eroded and created. 3. Mountains begin to erode 4. Sediments carried by rivers to ocean 5. Sediments accumulate in ocean 7. Sediments from ocean are deposited on continental crust

3 Section 11.2 Complete the graphic organizer with information from the section. Types of stress, including: Compression Tension Shear Lead to 

4 Section 11.2 2. Folds Anticlines Synclines

5 Section 11.2 Faults, classified as Normal Reverse Thrust Strike-slip

6 Section 11.2 4. Joints

7 Section 11.2 After You Read Along what formation do folded rock layers tend to occur? Continental margins

8 Section 11.2 After You Read 2. At what depth do folded rock layers tend to occur? Deep beneath Earth’s surface

9 Section 11.2 After You Read 3. Name two places where folded mountains can be found. New Zealand Appalachians

10 Section 11.3 While You Read Complete the graphic organizer below by noting the process by which each type of mountain is created and listing one or more examples of each. 1. Folded mountains: Two continental plates move toward each other; the plates collide and subduction stops; rocks at the edges of the plates crumple up into folded mountains; Appalachians, Alps, northern Rocky mountains, Urals, Himalayas

11 2. Volcanic mountains: Volcanic activity tends to form mountains; Examples: the Cascades, some Himalayan mountains. 3. Dome mountains: Uplifting forces or igneous intrusions push rock layers up into a dome; examples: Mountains on the border of the Colorado Plateau or the Rocky mountains.

12 4. Fault-block mountains: tension due to uplifting forces stretches the Earth’s crust, and faults from along the surface; blocks of crust are thrust upward; examples: Sierra Nevada, Wasatch Range, Teton Range.

13 Folded Mountains

14 Volcanic Mountains

15 Dome Mountains

16 Fault-block Mountains

17 Section 11.3 After You Read Review this section for examples of changes in the Earth’s surface that are ongoing. List three examples. The Indian plate is pushing into the Eurasian plate; in some parts of the western United States, the crust is being uplifted; in the Great Rift Valley, rising magma is forcing the crust upward.
