This science exam tests students on their knowledge of plate tectonics, earthquakes, volcanoes, and different landforms caused by tectonic plate interactions. It includes identification questions to label diagrams, true/false statements about concepts, and essay questions asking students to define key terms and differences. The exam covers the theory of plate tectonics, types of plate boundaries, landforms caused by convergence, divergence and transform boundaries, and factors that influence earthquakes.

Name:____________________________________________Grade and Section:____________________Date:_____________ Direction: Read the questions carefully. Write your answer on the space provided for each number. I. IDENTIFICATION: ____1. A mountain or hill, typically conical, having a crater or vent through which lava, rock fragments, hot vapor, and gas are being or have been erupted from the earth’s crust. ____2. A theory which suggests that Earth’s crust is made of several plates that interact in several ways producing earthquakes, volcanoes and other geologic features. ____3. Deep within the Earth, under tremendous pressure and at great temperatures, rock exists as a hot liquid called ______________. ____4. When the magma reaches the surface, it is called ___________. ____5. This zone goes through New Zealand, the Philippines, Japan, Alaska and along the western coasts of North and South America. ____6. Vibration of Earth due to rapid release of energy. ____7. It is a break in ground along which movement has taken place ____8. It is a depression or deep canal in the seafloor produced by subduction process ____9. The force that squeezes rock together. ____10. The force that pulls rocks apart. ____11. The force that causes rocks on either side of a fault to slide past each other. ____12. The _______________which were formed by the convergence (compression) of Indo-Australian Plate and the Eurasian Plate has many reverse and thrust faults. ____13. The _______________________ extends 960 km from Mexico to the north of California. ____14. Earthquakes which occur on the ocean floor produce giant sea waves called __________. ____15. Group of mountains produced through the convergence of two continental plates ____16. It is formed when two tectonic plates move apart from each other creating tension ____17. Formed by the divergence between oceanic plates while continental rift valley is formed between continental plates. ____18. It can also be found at the bottom of the ocean where seafloor spreading occurs. ____19. It is formed when two plates move toward each other. ____20. The oceanic plate bends downward into the mantle through the process called ________________. ____21. It is formed when two plates are sliding past each other. ____22. Transform fault boundary is also called ___________________. ____23. Divergent boundary is also known as _____________________________. ____24. A __________ is then formed creating an undersea canyon or linear fault valley. ____25. San Andreas Fault is an example ___________ boundary. ____26. II. Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if the statement is incorrect. ____1. Tension causes rocks to be pulled apart and the rocks move down along the fault line. ____2. Compression causes rocks to squeeze together and rocks move up along a fault line. ____3. Shearing is the force that pulls rocks apart. ____4. Trench is a depression or deep canal in the seafloor produced by subduction process ____5. When the lava reaches the surface, it is called magma. ____6. Kilauea is the world’s most active volcano ____7. The San Andreas Fault extends 900 km from Mexico to the north of California. ____8. Scientists need to know the amount of stress applied as well as the elastic limit of the rock to determine when an earthquake will occur. ____9. The Tsunami Warning Center is located in California. ____10. The amount of damage created by an earthquake depends on several factors. III. ESSAY: (5 POINTS FOR EACH QUESTION) 1. What is the difference between volcanoes, mountain range, and earthquakes? 2. Define the three types of boundaries. 3. What is the importance’s of the three types of plate’s boundaries?
