What type of mountain is formed at a subduction zone? Volcanic Mountain Row 1, Col 1 What is the mountain range called that runs along the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean? What is the mountain range called that runs along the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean? Mid-Ocean or Mid-Atlantic Ridge 2,1 • What type of mountain is formed when tension causes blocks of rock to move downward? What type of mountain is formed when tension causes blocks of rock to move downward? Fault Block Mountain 3,1 What type of mountain is formed when two tectonic plates collide? What type of mountain is formed when two tectonic plates collide? Folded Mountains 4,1 The tallest mountains are which type? The tallest mountains are which type? Folded Mountains 5,1 The boundary where two plates collide. The boundary where two plates collide. Convergent Boundary 1,2 • Boundary where plates move apart or away from each other. Boundary where plates move apart or away from each other. Divergent Boundary 2,2 A boundary where two plates move past each other. A boundary where two plates move past each other. Transform Boundary 3,2 Sea-floor spreading occurs at what type of boundary. Sea-floor spreading occurs at what type of boundary. Divergent Boundary 4,2 What is created at a boundary where sea-floor spreading occurs? What is created at a boundary where sea-floor spreading occurs? New Ocean Floor 5,2 A fault where the hanging wall moves down due to tension. A fault where the hanging wall moves down due to tension. Normal Fault 1,3 A fault where two fault blocks move past each other A fault where two fault blocks move past each other Strike Slip Fault 2,3 A fault where the hanging wall is forced upward due to compression. A fault where the hanging wall is forced upward due to compression Reverse Fault 3,3 Stress that is caused when rock is pulled apart Stress that is caused when rock is pulled apart Tension 4,3 Stress that is caused when rocks are pushed together Stress that is caused when rocks are pushed together Compression 5,3 • Theory that states that the continents have moved apart over millions of years, causing the same animal and plant fossils to be found on different continents Theory that states that the continents have moved apart over millions of years, causing the same animal and plant fossils to be found on different continents Theory of Continental Drift 1,4 Theory that states that the Earth’s lithosphere (crust and mantle) move on top of the asthenosphere Theory that states that the Earth’s lithosphere (crust and mantle) move on top of the asthenosphere The Theory of Plate Tectonics 2,4 Wegener’s name for the giant land mass that existed millions of years ago Wegener’s name for the giant land mass that existed millions of years ago Pangaea 3,4 When one tectonic plate moves below another plate, this is formed When one tectonic plate moves below another plate, this is formed Subduction zone 4,4 • This causes Earth’s tectonic plates to move This causes Earth’s tectonic plates to move Convection currents 5,4
