Semester Exam Review Aug-Dec.

Front

What type of boundary is associated with earthquakes?

Back

Transform Boundary

Front

What evidence for Continental Drift indicates that glacial deposits are found in warm climates today?

Back

Glacial Evidence

Front

How do molecules with more kinetic energy move compared to those with less kinetic energy?

Back

Faster

Front

What evidence for Continental Drift shows that similar types and ages of rocks are found on different continents?

Back

Landform/Rock Evidence

Front

What does the presence of glacier scars in Africa suggest about its past climate?

Back

Africa was once in an area of the Earth that had a very cold climate.

Front

What is a Transform Boundary?

Back

A type of tectonic boundary where two plates slide past each other, often causing earthquakes.

Front

Define Continental Drift.

Back

The theory that continents have moved over geological time and were once joined together.

Front

What is the significance of Fossil/Climate Evidence in supporting Continental Drift?

Back

It shows that similar fossils and climate conditions existed on continents that are now separated.

Front

What is the role of kinetic energy in molecular movement?

Back

Molecules with higher kinetic energy move faster than those with lower kinetic energy.

Front

What is Subduction?

Back

A geological process where one tectonic plate moves under another, often leading to volcanic activity.
