Explain what sets convection currents into motion. Use proper terminology related to the
layers of the earth and the type of heat transfer.
Describe the process of sea-floor spreading.
Classify and identify plate boundaries
Compare and contrast 3 different kinds of convergent plate boundaries
Describe what scientists now know about Earth that would have answered the scientists
who rejected Wegener’s theory.
What accounts for the difference in density between oceanic and continental crust?
Earth’s layers, lithosphere, asthenosphere
