Describe how silica affects the viscosity of lava that comes from a shield volcano. Depending on the amount of silica in the magma will determine how the liquid will flow. In a shield volcano the magma has a low silica content and low viscosity and will flow easily. 40 Volcanoes

When you’re in slide show view, click the right triangle to reveal the answer. Click the left triangle to return to the game board slide. Explain the formation of a volcanic landform that can result when a volcano uses up the magma in its magma chamber. When the magma chamber empties the mountain becomes a hollow shell. With nothing to support it, the top of the mountain collapses inward. The huge hole is called a caldera. 50 Volcanoes

What is the difference between convergent boundaries and divergent boundaries? Convergent is when two plates collide and create a mountain range. Divergent boundaries is where two plates move apart or diverge most is which occurs at the mid-ocean ridge. 20 Drifting Continents

In sea-floor spreading where and how are new and old rock related? As the hot molten material comes through the mid ocean ridge it cools and becomes new rock. As this happens the older rock is pushed to the sides of the mid-ocean ridge. 30 Drifting Continents

Describe how the following words are related: mantle, magma, convection currents and Lithosphere. Convection currents happen in the mantle. As the hot magma rises to the surface (because it is less dense) it squeezes through the lithosphere and can come through either the oceanic crust or the continental crust. 40 Drifting Continents

What is the theory of Pangea and give three forms of evidence that has been used to prove this theory. Pangea is the theory that all the continents had once been joined together in a single landmass and have since drifted apart. Evidence to prove this theory include landforms such as mountain ranges, fossils that showed up in similar areas and evidence from climate. 50 Drifting Continents

Describe what occurs when two plates collide and create a subduction zone. This is a type of convergent boundaries. When the plates collide the density of the plate determines which one comes out on top. 30 Plate Tectonics

As you can see in the illustration below, the mid-ocean ridge extends into the Red Sea between Africa and Asia. What do you think will happen to the Red Sea in the future? Explain your answer. It will become smaller as the continent of Africa and Asia continue to drift towards each other. 40 Plate Tectonics

When you’re in slide show view, click the right triangle to reveal the answer. Click the left triangle to return to the game board slide. Explain why there are convection currents in the mantel. The magma that is closest to the core is very hot which makes it less dense than the material above it. As it is heated it rises to the asthenosphere where is cools and becomes more dense. It then will sink back into the lower mantel where it is heated and the cycle continues. 50 Plate Tectonics
