Explanation

Question 4 of 22

1

What are the two kinds of crust?

Select one or more of the following:

  • Continental Crust

  • Plated Crust

  • Oceanic Crust

  • Icelandic Crust

Explanation

Question 5 of 22

1

The entire lithosphere of the Earth is broken into numerous segments called plates

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 6 of 22

1

The plates move very slowly but constantly, and this movement is called tectonics.

Select one of the following:

  • True

Explanation

Question 7 of 22

1

What are the three types of seismic waves released by an Earthquake?

Select one or more of the following:

  • P-wave

  • D-wave

  • S-wave

  • C-wave

  • L-wave

Explanation

Question 8 of 22

1

It uses distance information from three seismic stations
to locate the earthquake epicenter.

Select one of the following:

  • Triangulation Method

  • Pyramid Method

  • Quantum Method

Explanation

Question 9 of 22

1

What is the formula to compute for the distance of an earthquake's epicenter from each seismic stations?

Select one or more of the following:

  • d = Td/8 seconds x 100 km

  • d = Td x 100 %

Explanation

Question 10 of 22

1

The places on Earth where most of the earthquakes originated or some mountains and volcanoes were formed mark the boundaries of each lithospheric plate.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 11 of 22

1

What are the three distinct types of plate boundaries, which are differentiated by the type of movement they exhibit?

Select one or more of the following:

  • Divergent

  • Convergent

  • Transform Fault

  • Insurgent

Explanation

Question 12 of 22

1

The denser oceanic crust (Plate A) undergoes what we call subduction process or the bending of the crust towards the mantle.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 13 of 22

1

What is the deepest part of the ocean?

Select one or more of the following:

  • Hole

  • Trench

  • Triangle

Explanation

Question 14 of 22

1

The subduction of plate can cause earthquakes at varying depths.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 15 of 22

1

Converging oceanic plates will cause formation of trenches, and these trenches will become sources of earthquakes.

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 16 of 22

Select one of the following:

  • True
  • False

Explanation

Question 18 of 22

1

Many parts of the Philippines originated from oceanic-oceanic convergence. This resulted from the collision of two oceanic plates, with one of the plates diving under the other.
