Review For Chapter 2 Sections 1-6

A picture guide to Earth’s structure

Label Earth’s layers on the picture

What is the difference between continental and oceanic crust?

How are the 2 layers of the mantle different from one another?

What are the 2 parts of the core? Which is solid, which is liquid?

What is the theory of plate tectonics?

What is being formed in this picture and how is it formed?

The ring of fire is an area in which there are lots of _________________.

Most occur at plate ______________________ however some occur in

the middle of plates where the crust is weak. These areas of weak

crust are called __________________________. The hawaiian islands

are an example.

Label the focus epicenter and seismic waves.

What is an earthquake and where do they typically occur?

You have 3 rocks. You measure their mass and volume. Using the measurement calculate the density

Rock 1 Rock 2 Rock 3

Mass 20g 35g 7g

Volume 100 ml 70 ml 28ml

Density

If these rocks were in the earth’s crust. Which would be closest to the top? Which would be the furthest down? Explain how you know.

How does density apply to earth’s structure?

Temperature (increases/ decreases) with depth and density (increases/decreases) with temperature.

Explain what is happening in the picture on the left.

Identify and Describe each of the pictures below. Descriptions should include the words listed below the picture.

basalt, mid ocean ridge, magnetic field, magma

rift valley, magma, ocean water

Subduction, trench, suture zone

EarthquakesWhat landforms or events are created by the following boundaries:

Divergent

Convergent

Transform

What are the 3 types of convergent boundaries?

What does this map show and what is the theory associated with this map?

What evidence is used to support this theory?

This map shows predictions of the world map in 250 million years. How would the climate in Africa and Australia change if this were the case?
