Questão
the order of sea floor spreading is:
Responda
-
magma rises, is cooled, moves to the side (pushed by new magma coming up), is subducted underneath less dense continental crust

the difference between the inner core and the outer core is that it transitions from liquid to solid
Responda
- True
- False
Questão 19
Questão
Sea floor spreading is started by subduction
Responda
- True
- False

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
Questão 37
Questão
The terrestrial planets are made of metal and rock, as opposed to the jovian planets made of gases and ice. This is because:
Responda
-
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
