Plated Crust

Oceanic Crust
-
Icelandic Crust
Pregunta 5
Pregunta
The entire lithosphere of the Earth is broken into numerous segments called plates
Pregunta 6
Pregunta
The plates move very slowly but constantly, and this movement is called tectonics.
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
What are the three types of seismic waves released by an Earthquake?
Respuesta
-
P-wave
-
D-wave
-
S-wave
-
C-wave
-
L-wave
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
It uses distance information from three seismic stations
to locate the earthquake epicenter.
Respuesta
-
Triangulation Method
-
Pyramid Method
-
Quantum Method
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
What is the formula to compute for the distance of an earthquake's epicenter from each seismic stations?
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
The places on Earth where most of the earthquakes originated or some mountains and volcanoes were formed mark the boundaries of each lithospheric plate.
Pregunta 11
Pregunta
What are the three distinct types of plate boundaries, which are differentiated by the type of movement they exhibit?
Respuesta
-
Divergent
-
Convergent
-
Transform Fault
-
Insurgent
Pregunta 12
Pregunta
The denser oceanic crust (Plate A) undergoes what we call subduction process or the bending of the crust towards the mantle.
Pregunta 13
Pregunta
What is the deepest part of the ocean?
Pregunta 14
Pregunta
The subduction of plate can cause earthquakes at varying depths.
Pregunta 15
Pregunta
Converging oceanic plates will cause formation of trenches, and these trenches will become sources of earthquakes.
Pregunta 16
Pregunta
A series of ocean waves with very long wavelengths (typically hundreds of kilometers) caused by large-scale disturbances of the ocean.
Respuesta
-
Storm
-
Flood
-
Tsunami
-
Earthquake
Pregunta 17
Pregunta
Volcanic island arc is a chain of volcanoes positioned in an arc shape.
Pregunta 18
Pregunta
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.
Pregunta 19
Pregunta
When two continental plates converge, a collision zone is formed.
Pregunta 20
Pregunta
What plate boundary is formed when they tend to move apart?
Respuesta
-
Convergent
-
Insurgent
-
Divergent
-
Oceanic
Pregunta 21
Pregunta
When a spreading center develops within a continent, the crust may break into several segments.
Pregunta 22
Pregunta
A type of plate boundary that resembles the strike-slip fault.
Respuesta
-
Transform Fault
-
Convergent
-
Insurgent
