  3. Question 1 Heat and pressure What two things increase as you go further and further into the Earth? Check Answer

  4. Question 2 The outer core This layer is made of molten (liquid) iron and nickel. It is also the second hottest layer. What is it? Check Answer

  5. Question 3 The crust This rocky layer is thin compared to the others and floats on top of the mantle. What is it? Check Answer

  6. Question 4 The inner core This layer is made of hot, solid iron and nickel and is shaped like a ball. What is it? Check Answer

  7. Question 5 The mantle This layer is the largest and has a feature known as “plasticity” which allows it to go from a solid to a liquid. Check Answer

  8. Question 6 Convergent boundary This plate boundary occurs when plates move together. What is it? Check Answer

  9. Question 7 Transform boundary This plate boundary occurs when plates slide past one another horizontally. What is it? Check Answer

  10. Question 8 Divergent boundary This type of boundary occurs when two plates move away from one another. What is it? Check Answer

  11. Question 9 Transform boundary This type of plate boundary causes earthquakes to occur. What is it? Check Answer

  12. Question 10 Divergent boundary This type of plate boundary causes volcanoes to form. What is it? Check Answer

  13. Question 11 Tectonic plates What are large, continent sized blocks of crust known as? Check Answer

  14. Question 12 Heat from within the Earth What do scientists think causes tectonic plates to slowly move apart from one another? Check Answer

  15. Question 13 Pangaea Scientists believe the continents formed one supercontinent long ago but that they have drifted apart over millions of years. What is the name given to that supercontinent? Check Answer

  16. Question 14 Continental Drift Theory What theory states that the continents formed a giant supercontinent long ago and that they continue to slowly move today. Check Answer

  17. Question 15 • The continents seem to fit together like a puzzle. • 2. Similar fossil findings on continents that could have been connected. Give 2 pieces of evidence that support the Continental Drift Theory. Check Answer

  18. Question 16 Creation of new islands or rock for roads/buildings Name 1 positive effect of a volcano. Check Answer

  19. Question 17 Poisonous gases, destruction of cities, or fires. Name 1 negative effect of volcanoes. Check Answer

  20. Question 18 On the boundaries between tectonic plates (fault lines) Where do most volcanoes and earthquakes occur? Check Answer

  21. Question 19 Age= 4.6 billion years Weight= 6.6 sextillion tons Make-up= Rock According to scientists, what is the age, weight, and make-up of the Earth? Check Answer
