Year 7 Test Revision Use this PowerPoint in conjunction with your books to help you revise. Managing Earthquakes and Volcanoes Use this PowerPoint in conjunction with your books to help you revise What do you need to revise? • Plate boundaries (constructive, destructive, conservative) • How earthquakes and volcanoes form at each plate boudary • Impacts of Mt St Helen’s volcanic eruption (on people and environment) • Kashmir and Los Angeles earthquakes: impacts explained (think about the difference between rich and poor countries) • Reasons why people live near earthquakes and volcanoes Plate boundaries Plates meet in three ways: • By moving apart (constructive) • By moving together (destructive/collision) • By moving past each other (conservative) Kung Fu plate Boundaries video Plate boundary Diagram Explanation Constructive Two plates move apart and magma rises up to fill the gap. This forms new crust and create volcanoes. Earthquakes can also happen as friction builds up when the crust moves over the mantle. Destructive An oceanic and a continental plate move together and the heavier oceanic crust is forced/subducts under the continental plate. The oceanic crust melts and creates new magma which then rises up through the continental crust to form a volcano. Earthquakes also happen here as friction builds up when the two plates move past each other. Collision Two continental plates move together. Neither can sink so both are forced upwards to form mountains. Conservative Two plates are sliding past each other (in opposite or the same direction) but at different speeds. This causes friction to then build up which is eventually released as an earthquake. No volcanoes happen here. Mt St Helens Mt St Helen’s song Kashmir/Los Angeles Earthquake How does being in a rich or poor country affect what the effects of an earthquake will be? Why do people live near volcanoes and earthquakes? Too poor to move Fertile soils Geothermal energy Don’t care Reasons Mining Tourism Sacred place Family links/tradition Extreme Environments You should use this PowerPoint in conjunction with your exercise book to help you revise. You need to know… • Types of extreme environment (hot, col, dry and wet) • Challenges/difficulties of living in extreme environments • How to read a climate graph • Plant and animal adaptations to hot/dry environments Hot environments: adaptations People Plants Adaptations Plants Buildings BBC Bitesize – adaptations Animals Wet environments: monsoon • What are the impacts of a monsoon? – Bangladesh and the positive impacts of a monsoon When describing impacts don’t forget to develop the knock-on effects e.g. floods > schools are closed > education suffers. • How do people cope with the monsoon rains? – Adapting homes in Bangladesh Dry environments: desert • Deserts have very little rainfall but can be either hot or cold. How to read a climate graph Energy Revision Use this PowerPoint in addition to your exercise book to help you revise. What you need to know • • • • Types of energy (non-renewable & renewable) Carbon footprints Acid rain: causes, effects and responses Global warming: causes, effects and responses Types of energy Non-renewable Oil Coal Gas Nuclear Wood Renewable Solar Wind Wave Tidal Geothermal Biomass Wood Non-renewable energy sources Renewable energy sources Carbon footprints Carbon footprint is the sum of all the greenhouse gases (e.g. carbon dioxide)that are created by a person, company, event or product. • Make sure you know what they are and why we need to reduce our footprints Carbon footprint revision website Acid rain • You need to be able to explain the causes, impacts and responses. Acid rain revision website Global Warming • You need to know the causes, impacts and responses. Global Warming - None like it hot! Greenhouse Effect explanation Japan Revision • Use this PowerPoint in addition to your exercise book to help you revise. What you need to know • Locations in Japan • Great East Japan Earthquake • Tokyo: how it copes with so many people Japan You need to know the location of: Honshu Hokkaido Shikoku Kyushu Tokyo Sapporo Osaka Hiroshima Mt Fuji Sea of Japan (East Sea) Pacific Ocean Great East Japan Earthquake You need to be able to explain: • Causes • Impacts (socio-economic and environmental) • Responses Causes • Destructive plate boundary • Pacific plate and Eurasian plate • How it caused a tsunami (animated guide) Effects and Responses BBC News Report Humanitarian Responses Tokyo: how does it cope with so many people?
