  1. Thank you for not chewing gum or anything else  • Materials: • Pencil • Notebook • Packet • Lab Text D-42 Wednesday, December 11, 2013 • Agenda: • Bell work • Activity 45 - Understanding Plate Boundaries Daily Objective: Today we will learn how plate movement is related to landforms and earthquakes. Daily Question: How does the theory of plate tectonics, explain the locations of earthquakes, volcanoes and mountains?

  2. Activity 45: Understanding Plate Boundaries Procedure: -Read the activity - As you read complete the notes worksheet-Student Sheet 45.1 When you are done, work on your study guide.

  3. Convergent Plate BoundaryOceanic/continental asthenosphere - is a part of the upper mantle just below the lithosphere that is involved in plate tectonic movement Subduction - process that takes place at convergent boundaries by which one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate and sinks into the mantle as the plates converge Ex: Andes Mountains Cascade mountain Range Subduction

  4. Continental/Continental Convergent Plate Boundary Earthquakes Mountains Ex: Himalayan Mts.

  5. Oceanic/Oceanic Convergent plate boundary. Ex: Solomon Islands

  6. Divergent Volcanoes Ridges Ex: Mid-Atlantic Ridge

  7. Transform Earthquakes Ex: San Andreas Fault

  8. Hot Spots Hot Spot: volcanic regions thought to be fed by underlying mantle in which magma is trapped and hot compared with the mantle in other places. Ex: Hawaii & Yellowstone
