- Revision
- Plate Tectonics
- Constructive
- "Plates move away from
each other."
- Conservative
- "Plates move past
each other."
- Destructive
- Oceanic-Oceanic
- "Cooler, denser
plate subducts
under opposite
when they meet."
- Oceanic-Continental
- "Denser oceanic
lithosphere forced
under buoyant
continental
lithosphere."
- Continental-Continental
- "Neither plate can
subduct, both low
density, they both
collide."
- "Mantle heated
below. In hotter
areas, rises
upwards. Cooler
areas, opposite."
- Convection Current
- Theory of
Continental Drift
- Fossils of Land
Animals
- E.g. "Couldn't swim
to other places
because of the mass
of water."
- The countries fit together like a
jigsaw.
- Continents
- "Carried slowly about Earth's surface because
plates beneath are moving."
- Folding
- Strike
- "Direction of line
formed by
intersection of a
fault."
- Apparent
Dip
- "Drift of geologic beds.
Seen from any *vertical
cross-section* that's not
horizonital to the strike
of geologic beds."
- True Dip
- "When * is
perpendicular
to strike of
beds."
