These layers change in \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ , \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ , and \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ and \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ increase as \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ increases.** **Label the interior layers of the Earth below:** **The crust consists of land (continents) and ocean floor. The continental crust is \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ than oceanic crust. The crust is broken into many \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ that "float" on the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.** **The mantle is a \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ , \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ layer of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ composed of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. This is where most of the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ of the Earth is located.** **Describe the different layers of the mantle below:** ----------------- ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ **Lithosphere** **Asthenosphere** **Upper mantle** **Lower mantle** ----------------- ------------------- ------------------ ------------------ **The Earth's core is the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ of the planet, and is made almost entirely of \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ from the mantle and core creates \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_. The \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ is molten and the \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ is solid.** **Theory of Plate Tectonics** **What crustal features are formed at subduction zones? \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_** **What crustal feature is formed at strike-slip faults? \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_** **Continental Drift** **1.** -------- **2.** **3.** **4.** **5.** **6.** **7.** **Seafloor Spreading** **Forces that Drive Plate Movement** **Which form of heat transfer is considered the driving force of lithospheric plate movement? \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_** **Boundaries** **The 3 types of plate boundaries are \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ , \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ , and \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.** **Earthquakes** **The 3 primary earthquake zones are \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ , \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ , and \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_.** -------------- ------------- ----------------- **Shearing** **Tension** **Compression** -------------- ------------- ----------------- **Measuring Earthquakes** ------------- ------------- ------------------- **P-waves** **S-waves** **Surface waves** ------------- ------------- ------------------- **Volcanoes** **Define the different types of magma landforms below:** -------------------- ----------- ----------- ---------------- -------------------- **Volcanic necks** **Dikes** **Sills** **Batholiths** **Dome mountains** -------------------- ----------- ----------- ---------------- -------------------- --------------- ------------ ------------------ **Composite** **Shield** **Cinder cones** --------------- ------------ ------------------ **Draw a cross-section of a volcano, labeling the following parts: magma chamber, vent, lava flow, and crater.** ------------ ------------- ------------- **Active** **Dormant** **Extinct** ------------ ------------- ------------- **Hydrothermal Vents and Geysers**
