Theory of plate tectionics-the upper layer plates in overtime at exchange.
Tectonic plates-the crust at drift.
Convection currents-when the gas went to mantle then make temperature change.
Normal-make rocks moving down.
Reverse-make rocks moving up.
Strike slip-the rocks lip different way.
Continental drift-the land moving at ocean.
Creator-Abraham Ortelius
Pangaea-all plates was together.
Model
Normal faults, occur when the rocks above the fault plane move down relative to the rocks below it, puling the rock apart. When there is compression and folding, such as in mountainous regions, the rocks above the plane move upward relative to the rocks below the plane, this call reverse faults. strik-slip faults occur when shearing stress causes rock on either side of the crack to slide parallel to the fault plane between them.
Prediction Map
Convergent
Movement: The plates push together.
Effects: Mountain
Divergent
Movement: The pltes move to the different way.
Effects: Ridges
Transform
Movement: The pltes moving back and front.
Effects: Earthquake.
Hot spot
Movement: Apart is hottest.
Effects: Island and mountain.
Photographic Evidence
Convergnet Boundary
- Convection drift under the continental
- When the plates move together, will become the mountain.
Subduction Zone
- Convergent Boundary
- The plate goes under another plates.
Divergent Boundary
- Convection drift under the continental.
- Make two plates move to different way, both the plates would have a ridges.
Transform Boundary
- Convection drift under the continental.
- The plates moving back and front, make it earthquake.
Fault Zone
- Earthquake & tectonic plate Boundaries.
- Normal, Reverse and stick slip.
Earthquake
- The curst moving under the continental.
- The curst moving make continental drift.
Tsunami
- The earthquake happen under the ocean.
- Earthquake.
Hot spots
- The magma is long time in a same location.
- Island and mountain.
