tectonic activity

At the centre of the Earth is a place of extreme temperature and pressure. What is it called?

• Core

• Mantle

• Crust

• Lithosphere

What is the molten rock in the interior of the Earth (under the tectonic plates called)?

• Magnum

• Spagnum

• Magma

• Lava

Tectonic plates move due to the convection currents in the molten material under them. What causes these currents to occur?

• The heat from the Earth's interior

• The rotation of the Earth on it's axis

• The revolution of the Earth around the sun

• The forces of the ocean tides moving across the surface of the tectonic plates

In some places Tectonic plates are being pushed together. What is this called?

• Divergent boundary

• Transform boundary

• Converging boundary

• None of the above

In some places Tectonic plates are being pulled apart. What is this called?

• Diverging boundary

• Transform boundary

• Converging boundary

• Collision boundary

In some places Tectonic plates slide against one another. What is this called?

• Diverging boundary

• Transform boundary

• Converging boundary

• Collision boundary

The Earth's Crust is in pieces that we call....

• Plates
• Bowls
• Sections
• Countries

Sometimes the plates push together...this is a ___________ boundary.

• Divergent
• Convergent
• Transform
• Out of

When plates move apart and magma comes to the surface making new crust we have this type of plate boundary.

• Divergent

• Convergent

• Transform

• Collision

When plates slip sideways against each other the type of boundary we have is...

• Divergent
• Convergent
• Transform
• Slip SIdeways
