divergent boundaries: where two plates are moving apart, ocean basins are made here
transform boundaries: where plates slide pass each other, causes earthquakes]]> 2019-04-24 17:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353835260 What are tectonic plates and where are the located? lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353835262 The tectonic plates are plates that cause the continents to move, and make up the lithospher.]]> 2019-04-24 17:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353835262 How do the layers affect plates? lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353835264 The mantle and crust make up the plates, the plates make up a layer of the Earth called the lithosphere.]]> 2019-04-24 17:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353835264 What are the Earth's layers? lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353835266 Physical: crust, mantle, outer core, inner core
Chemical: oceanic crust, continental crust, crust, upper mantle, lithosphere, convection currents, middle mantle, asthenosphere, lower mantle, outer core, inner core]]> 2019-04-24 17:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353835266 Who is Alfred Wegener and what was his evidence for his theory? lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353849828 Alfred Wegener came up with a theory that all the continents were a giant supercontinent called Pangea, found same fossils on different continents, found same rocks on different continents, found glaciers remains on Africa, found plant fossils on Antartica]]> 2019-04-24 17:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/353849828 Harry Hess and how he got to his theory lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354193398 Harry Hess found his theory of seafloor spreading by other poeple]]> 2019-04-25 16:57:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354193398 Pangea lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354194385 Pangea is a superconitnent that was spread out by seafloor spreading]]> 2019-04-25 16:59:56 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354194385 Causes/effects of Volcanos lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354195444 Volcanoes happen when magma rises up from the mantle.
Volcanoes helped form the Hawaiian islands]]> 2019-04-25 17:01:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354195444 seafloor spreading lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354197187 the formation of new areas of oceanic crust, which occurs through the upwelling of magma at midocean ridges and its subsequent outward movement on either side.]]> 2019-04-25 17:05:16 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354197187 Earthquakes lschmidt23 https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354198015 occur anywhere when tectonic plates move together]]> 2019-04-25 17:06:59 UTC https://padlet.com/lschmidt23/ovn94yo6lqcg/wish/354198015
