and igneous. It has an average density of 2.8 g/cm3
and its thickness ranges
from 5 to 50 km.
Questão 3

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

Responda
-
Convergent
-
Insurgent
-
Divergent
-
Oceanic
Questão 21
Questão
When a spreading center develops within a continent, the crust may break into several segments.
Questão 22
