14. FINAL BONUS QUESTION! Draw arrows to mark out a pair of convergent plates and a pair of divergent plates. (8 bonus marks!)

15. Answer (Q1):  At a divergent plate boundary, between two oceanic plates

16. Answer (1(a)): Mid-Atlantic Ridge East Pacific Ridge

17. Answer (Q2):  Convergent boundary, between two oceanic plates

18. Answer (Q2(a)):  Frictional heat at the oceanic boundaries is high  Magma produced from melting of oceanic crust is different from that of continental crust  Abundant molten magma  Abundant volcanoes form (submarine volcanoes)  As the volcanoes build up over time and appear at the surface, this chain of volcanoes appearing over the water is known as island arcs

19. Answer (Q3): (Any one of the following…) 1. Convergent boundary – two continental plates 2. Divergent boundary – two oceanic plates 3. Transform boundary

20. Answer (Q4):  At a divergent plate boundary, between two continental plates

21. Answer (Q4(a)):

22. Answer (Q4(b)):  Rift valley  mid-oceanic ridge  Continental plates  oceanic plates  How?  Crust continues to widen and thin as it stretches out due to the spreading of the magma beneath  Valley formed is increasingly filled with water from the surrounding oceans

23. Answer (Q5):  At a convergent plate boundary, between an oceanic plate and a continental plate

24. Answer (Q5(a)):

25. Answer (Q6):  At a convergent plate boundary, between two continental plates

26. Answer (Q7):  All except at continental-continental convergent boundary and transform boundary…

30. Indian plate is continuously moving north at the rate of about 2 cm every year.  Himalayas are rising at the rate of about 5 millimeter per year  Himalayas are still geologically active and structurally unstable  Earthquakes are a frequent occurrence in the entire Himalayan region.
