Give evidence to explain why we believe Antarctica was warmer in the past.
Be able to explain 4 supporting evidences for the theory of Continental Drift.
Be able to explain seafloor spreading and give supporting evidence for it.
Study all notes from Layered Earth B “Tectonic Plates,” Power Point and
notes taken in class.
5. Be able to draw and give a real world example of each of the following plate
boundary types:
Convergent boundary between oceanic and continental plates.
Convergent boundary between two oceanic plates.
Convergent boundary between two continental plates.
Divergent boundary
Transform boundary.
Don’t get too bogged down in the names, remember continental means “land”
and oceanic means “in the ocean.”
Convergent means coming together
Divergent means moving apart.
