A5
Another word that can be
used to describe a fault is
a.bending.

Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
B1
Look at the picture to the
right. What type of fold is
shown?
a.Anticline
b.Syncline
c.Monocline
d.Tricline
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
B2
A convergent plate boundary
can lead to the folding (and
faulting) of rock which can
lead to the creation of
mountain ranges. This
convergent boundary is most
likely occurring between
a.Two Oceanic Plates
b.An Oceanic and A
Continental Plate
c.Two Continental Plates
d.All of the Above
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
B3
Uplift is described as the rising
of the Earth’s crust to higher
elevations, especially in
mountainous areas, that at
times can cause folding (and
faulting). What is the main
cause of this uplift?
a.Landslides
b.Deposition
c.Earthquakes
d.Weathering and Erosion
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
B4
The following picture is that of
an anticline fold. Which of the
following statements best
describes this type of fold?
a.The oldest rock is found in the
middle and youngest on the
edges
b.The youngest rock is found in
the middle and the oldest on
the edges
c.The oldest rock is on the top
and the youngest on the
bottom
d.None of the Above
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
B5
Uplift can cause which of the
following?
a.Formation of mountains
b.Folding and faulting of rock
layers
c.The shifting of fossils from
lower levels of rock to upper
levels of rock
d.All of the Above
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
C1
Earthquakes are most likely to
occur
a.near the center of
continents.
b.along bodies of water.
c.along plate boundaries.
d.in mountainous areas.
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
C2
Tectonic plates fit very close
together like the pieces of a
puzzle. As they move into, away
from and past each other
sometimes they break along faults
causing the ground to move
because of a sudden release of
energy. This is known as
a.plastic rebound.
b.deformation.
c.stress.
d.elastic rebound.
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
C3
Seismic waves travel from the
center of the earthquake and
a.only up to the surface.
b.only out to the sides.
c.only down to the core.
d.in all directions.
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
C4
What are two types of body
waves produced by an
earthquake?
a.Surface Wave
b.Pressure Wave
c.Shear Wave
d.Only b and c
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
C5
A pressure wave is also known
as a ______________ wave and
a shear wave is also known as
a _______________ wave.
a.Primary, Seismic
b.Primary, Secondary
c.Practical, Seismic
d.Practical, Secondary
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
D1
Which of the following are
characteristics of an explosive
volcano?

Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
D2
Volcanoes form along the edge
of plate boundaries. An
example of volcanic activity
forming at divergent boundaries
is
a.along a coastline at a
subduction zone
b.at a hot spot forming a chain
of islands
c.at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge when
new sea floor is created
d.None of these are examples of
divergent boundaries
Mr. Hollander's 8th Grade Science Class
D3
A mantle plume is a
characteristic of a
a.lava plateau.

under the other causing
melting of the lower plate will
result in which of the
following?
