Science 10 SCIENCE 10 Plate Tectonics and Mechanism of Plate Movements St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 DISCUSSION QUESTIONS What are the main layers of the Earth? St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 DISCUSSION QUESTIONS What are the distinct features of each layer? St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 DISCUSSION QUESTIONS Can we really go to the center of the Earth? St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 Earth has four major distinct layer: crust, mantle, inner core, and outer core. St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 What are the two types of crust, and how does it differ from one another? St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 What are the two types of crust, and how does it differ from one another? St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 How does convection current in the mantle affects the movement of the lithosphere? St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 How does convection current in the mantle affects the movement of the lithosphere? The asthenosphere can deform and reshape as a result of the hot, molten mantle, which circulates a convection current. St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 How does convection current in the mantle affects the movement of the lithosphere? These mechanism of heat transfer drives the movement of tectonic plates. St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 How does the composition of outer core differ from inner core? St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 Letโs Recall St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 Letโs Recall (1) crust (2) mantle (3a) outer core (3b) inner core (4) lithosphere (5) asthenosphere (6) outer core (7) inner core. St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 Letโs Recall Lithosphere, a rigid layer that can break under stress, is made up of: a. crust and innermost mantle b. crust and outmost mantle c. mantle and outer core d. mantle and inner core St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 Letโs Recall Lithosphere, a rigid layer that can break under stress, is made up of: a. crust and innermost mantle b. crust and outmost mantle c. mantle and outer core d. mantle and inner core St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 Letโs Recall It is located below lithosphere and contains, hot, molten rocks or magma. a. asthenosphere b. mantle c. outer core d. inner core St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 Letโs Recall It is located below lithosphere and contains, hot, molten rocks or magma. a. asthenosphere b. mantle c. outer core d. inner core St. Scholasticaโs College Manila Science 10 What is a tectonic plate?
