Earth's Processes and Landforms test corrections

Which scenario would you most likely see volcanic activity occur in?

• In the middle of a continental plate (W)

• In the Antarctic regions of Earth (X)

• At a transform boundary (Y)

• In an area where two plates are pushing together (Z)

The outer core can be described as...

• a liquid layer surrounding the center, and is responsible for Earth's magnetic field.

• the middle layer of Earth, and contains the most heat.

• the outermost layer of Earth, and varies in temperature and thickness.

• a dense, solid layer, and is responsible for the motion of Earth's plates.

Name the boundary

• convergent boundary
• divergent boundary
• transform boundary
• sergent boundary

Which is the correct order of the Earth's layers (from outermost to innermost)?

• inner core, outer core, mantle, crust

• crust, inner core, outer core, mantle

• crust, mantle, inner core, outercore

• crust, mantle, outer core, inner core

Which diagram shows a plate boundary that is typical for the formation of volcanoes?

• 
• 
• 
• 

What process created this V-shaped valley?

• Erosion due to a river
• Erosion due to a glacier
• Weathering due to a river
• Weathering due to wind

Where are volcanoes located?

• Only on land
• They can be found anywhere. They are randomly located
• In hot places
• Some places have volcanoes, other places don't. There is a pattern.

The process of breaking up rocks on Earth's surface is called...

• sediment
• erosion
• weathering
• deposition 

Which of the following is NOT a slow change to Earth's surface?

• weathering
• erosion
• deposition
• a landslide

A mountain range is an example of which type of plate boundary movement?

• Divergent
• Transform
• Convergent
