Warm Ups 2-1 to 2-15

Warm Up #2-1, October 27

1. What are the 4 layers of the earth? 2. What are the 3 types of plate boundaries?3. Describe what a subduction zone is.

Warm Up #2-2, October 28

1. Describe the process of seafloor spreading2. Draw and label the diagram of seafloor spreading.

Warm Up #2-3, November 2

1. Describe the motion of the 3 types of plate boundaries.

2. Warm peanut butter is easier to spread than cold peanut butter. Explain how knowing this help you understand why the mantle is able to deform in a plastic manner.

Warm Up #2-4, November 3

1. Copy the steps for seafloor spreading1. At the mid ocean ridge magma comes up from the mantle, cools, hardens

and becomes new crust.2. At the divergent boundary, the new crust spreads out and pushes the old

rock to the sides in a continuous process.3. When older oceanic crust reaches a continental crust the more dense

oceanic plate is subducted down and forms a trench on the surface making a convergent boundary.

4. The older crust melts back into the mantle and is recycled by convection currents.

2. Draw and label the diagram of seafloor spreading.

Warm Up #2-5, November 4

1. Describe the 3 types of faults and stresses associated with them.

2. What is the similarity and difference between a S-wave and an P-wave?

Warm Up #2-6, November 5

1. Describe the 3 types of boundaries and where they can be found.

2. Give one fact about each layer of the earth.3. Draw a diagram of an earthquake. Include; fault, focus,

epicenter and seismic waves.
