the Earth
The Crust
What is the thickest layer of the
Earth?
The Mantle
What is the name of the thin layer
that the crust and upper part of the
mantle make up?

The rock that makes up the mantle is
similar to a certain substance. What
is it?
Silly Putty
Name all 4 layers of the Earth, in
order, starting from the outer most
layer.
Crust, Mantle, Outer Core, Inner
Core
The Richter Scale measures the
intensity of earthquakes. What is the
lowest rating and the highest rating?
1-10
Seismic waves are the vibration that
travels through the earth carrying
energy that is released during an
earthquake. What is the name of the
instrument that measures these
waves?
Seismograph
What is the term for the area where
pressure is released through a crack
in the Earth’s crust?
A fault
What are the three major types of
faults?
Normal Fault, Reverse Fault,
Strike-Slip Fault
What type of fault would create a
waterfall?
A normal fault
What is the term for a mixture of
gases and hot molten rock?
Magma
What is the name of liquid magma
that reaches the surface of the Earth?
Lava
What is the name of area in the
Pacific Ocean where many
volcanoes and earthquakes occur?
The Ring of Fire
What do you call a huge piece of
molten rock that can blast out of a
volcano?
Volcanic bomb

volcanoes?
Shield, Composite Cone, Cinder
Cone
What is the name of an ancient
organism that has been preserved in
rock?
Fossil
This is the term for the study of

lithosphere are called, what?
(Remember the broken eggshell
pieces represented these)
Plates
This is the theory that states that
pieces of the Earth’s lithosphere are
in a constant, slow motion, driven
my currents in the mantle.

that supports continental drift?
* Fossils
