Quiz/Review

This quiz is designed to test your knowledge on Earth's layers, the behavior of tectonic plates, and volcanic activity. Grab a small piece of paper, write your name on it, and be ready to answer questions on what layer we live on, the nature of the outer core, and the dynamic processes that create volcanoes. We will explore concepts such as convergent plate boundaries, hot spots, and the map of tectonic plates. Prepare for an engaging review session that strengthens your understanding of geology!

Presentation Transcript

  1. Quiz/Review • Get out a small piece of paper and put your name on it. • When the bell rings, the quiz will begin.

  2. Question 1 • What layer do we live on?

  3. Question 2 • How do we know the outer core is liquid?

  4. Question 3 • What does the rotating inner core create?

  5. Answers • Crust • Earthquake seismic waves do not go through. • Magnetosphere

  6. Volcanoes

  7. Mid-Ocean Ridges • Where the crust is pulled apart, allowing magma to rise in the crack further pushing the “plates apart”

  8. Convergent plate boundaries • When crustal plates come together. • Density forces one plate to subduct or sink below the other. • The sinking plate melts and magma rises which creates a volcano.

  9. Hot Spots • These are spots where magma rises to the surface and creates volcanoes and mountains. • Hawaii is the most famous. • Yellowstone hotspot!

  10. Tectonic plate map

  11. Plate tectonics

  12. Location • Most volcanoes occur at plate boundaries around the world.
