Unit 5: Plate Tectonics Review Guide Things you need to know for the test…… Be able to explain…… Who was Alfred Wegener? What was his theory? What was his evidence (at least 3)? Why did no one believe him? Theory of Continental Drift and Pangaea What are layers of earth and what the Lithosphereic plates move on What are the two types of lithospheric plates? Explain the difference between each (at least 3 differences)? What types of rocks make up continental and oceanic crust? What is a mid-ocean ridge and who discovered it? Explain the process of subduction. What did Harry Hess call his hypothesis? What is sea-floor spreading? What evidence is there that supports sea floor spreading? Be able to explain the process of convection (where it happens) and how it relates sea floor spreading Divergent definition example continental/continental Definitions of transform fault boundary and how they are detected Know each boundary and what can form at each: Convergent Divergent Transforms Match a. Convergent Boundary __________ Mid Ocean Ridge __________ San Andreas Fault __________ Pillow Lava __________ Ocean Trench __________ Rift Valley __________ Mountain Ranges __________ Offsetting b. Divergent Boundary c. transform fault boundary
