Answer 6

plate tectonics

Question 7

When two forces push towards each other from opposite sides, the rock layers will bend into folds.The process by which folds are formed are due to compressional forces known as folding. There are large-scale and small-scale folds. Large-scale folds are found mainly along destructive plate boundaries.

Answer 7

folding

Question 8

The process of forming a fault is faulting. The line of fault which appears on land surface is known as fault line. These lines are often lines of weakness which allow molten rock to rise up onto the eart surface when there is active volcanic activity nearby.

Answer 8

faulting

Question 9

Answer 9

primodial heat

Question 10

During the early stage of the Solar System formation, gravitational Accretion generated a significant amount of heat contributing to the initial warmth of the young Earth. Heat released from collison of planetary objects uring the early formation of the planets.

Answer 10

accretion energy

Question 11

Heat generated as materials are compressed, occurs in a close system when gas is compressed without the exchange of heat with its surroundings.

Answer 11

adiabatic conpression

Question 12

Heat from the earth’s core

Answer 12

core formation energy

Question 13

Heat generated by long-term radioactive decay.

Answer 13

radioactive heat

Question 14

direct heat transfer through physical contact

Answer 14

conduction

Question 15

transfer of heat through the movement of fluid, When a fluid, such as air or a liquid, is heated and then travels away from the source, it carries the thermal energy along.

Answer 15

convection

Question 16

refer to regions within a fluid or substance where heat is transferred through the movement of the material itself. This process is known as convection, and it plays a significant role in various natural phenomena

Answer 16

comvection zones

Question 17

Happens when magma generated and develops into igneous rocks.

Answer 17

magmatism

Question 18

The rising magma in the mantle convection cell brings the heat to the surface, transferring heat to the overlying rocks. The transfer of heat due to the convection is accompanied by a decrease in pressure or decompression associated with the spreading of the tectonic plates.

Answer 18

mid oceanic ridges

Question 19

The transfer of heat and the compression result to magma generation. The source of heat for ________ is much deeper. Magma froms by pressure, high temperature, magma chambers- once magma is formed, it collects and accumulate in magma chambers.

Answer 19

mantle plumes

Question 20

are regions where one tectonic plate is being pushed beneath another into the Earth’s mantle. As the subducting plate descends into the mantle, the high pressure and heat cause it to undergo a process called partial melting.

Answer 20

subduction zones

Question 21

The chemical components and geologic characteristics of the rock change because of exposure to heat & pressure.

Answer 21

metamorphism

Question 22

Rocks push or squeeze against one another where the stress produced is directed towards the center.

Answer 22

compression

Question 23

Rocks pulled apart. Rocks may separate in opposite direction.

Answer 23

tension

Question 24

Some of the portion of a plate at the edge may break away in different directions. Eventually making the plate smaller inside.

Answer 24

shearing

Question 25

The crust become compact, thus making it look smaller.

Answer 25

confining

Question 26

the formation of igneous rock by solidification of magma beneath the earth’s surface.
-is part of endogenic process that explain how rocks are made deep within the Earth as molten materials cools and becomes solid.

Answer 26

plutonism

Question 27

is the process by which the hot molten materials from the earth’s interior finds its way out. The phenomenon of eruption of molten rocks(magma) onto the surface of the Earth or a solid-surface planet.

Answer 27

volcanism

Question 28

A volcano is a vent or opening on planet’s surface which allows molten rock called magma, volcanic ash and gas to escape out onto its surface. A volcano gives a look like a mountain from which lava erupts. The hot magma erupting from a volcano is called lava.

Answer 28

volcano

Question 29

funnel shaped pit at the top of a volcano. Formed when material is blown out of the volcano by explosions

Answer 29

Question 30

when the Volcano collapses due to an empty magma chamber

Answer 30

caldera

Question 31

often form the largest and tallest volcanoes. They are the most explosive and dangerous of the types of volcanoes.

Answer 31

composite volcanoes

Question 32

Usually smaller in size than composite volcanoes, and the eruptions are smaller also. They form into steep cone shaped hills.

Answer 32

cinder cone volcanoes

Question 33

do not erupt or explode like composite or cinder cone volcanoes. this volcanoes have much smaller eruptions producing less ash.

Answer 33

Shield volcanoes

Question 39

A smooth and Continuous lava crust. ________ forms when the effusion rate is low and consequently the velocity of lava flow is slow. Pahoehoe lava flow is usually at least 10 times slower than typical AA lava flow.
