Respuesta
-
Protostars are larger

Pregunta 15
Pregunta
the order of sea floor spreading is:
Respuesta
-
magma rises, is cooled, moves to the side (pushed by new magma coming up), is subducted underneath less dense continental crust
-
magma rises, moves to the side, cools which locks in the curie temperature, and then sinks as the density increases

the difference between the inner core and the outer core is that it transitions from liquid to solid
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 19
Pregunta
Sea floor spreading is started by subduction
Respuesta
- True
- False
Pregunta 20
Pregunta
types of convergent boundaries are:
Respuesta

Pregunta 27
Pregunta
Igneous and metamorphic rocks lock in the polar field by:
Respuesta
-
cooling past their curie temperatures and locking in the polar field at the time
-

-
no magnetic field
-
a much larger radius than earth
-
no plate tectonics

-
sea floor spreading centres
Pregunta 36
Pregunta
hot spot hypothesis is that:
Respuesta
-
the hot spot are caused by plate movement, magma coming up through same plate, in a different place
-
the sea floor spreading centers move, causing magma to form the Hawaiian islands
Pregunta 37
Pregunta
The terrestrial planets are made of metal and rock, as opposed to the jovian planets made of gases and ice. This is because:
Respuesta
-
planets closer to the sun are formed by elements that condense at higher temperatures. This is why terrestrial planets are formed by metals and rocks
-
because the gases condense at lower temperatures they did not form the terrestrial planets and were pushed outwards
-
planets closer to the sun were able to get more of the elements from the nebula and therefore were made of the heavier elements, leaving the lighter elements for the jovian planets
