Homework:
3/11 - Copy vocabulary words in NB: 1- 11
3/13 - 12-23. OR you can copy all of them at the same time. Make sure it is completed by Friday (3/13)
1. crust - the thin and solid outer most layer of the earth above the mantle
2. mantle - The layer of rock between the earths crust and core
3. inner core - it is solid, dense and extends from bottom of outer core to center of the earth
4. mesosphere - Its the strong lower part of the mantle, between asthenosphere and the outer core and extends from asthenosphere to earths core
5. fault - A break in a body of a rock along which one block slides relative to another
6. divergent - Plates move away from eachother
7. convergent - plates move toward eachother
8. continental drift - hypothesis that states that continents once formed a single landmass broke up and driffed to the preasant locations
9. sea floor spreading - the proces by which new oceanic lithosphere forms as magma rises towards the surface and solidifies
10. transform slip - the boundry between tectonics plates that are sliding past eachother horizontally
11. pangaea - present continents were joined in a single huge continent "all the earth"
12. convergent - when plates move towards each other
13. seismograph - an instrument that records vibrations in the ground and determines the location and strength of earthquakes
14. magnetic reversal - the earth magnetic plates change places
15. mid ocean ridge - an underwater mountain that takes place where sea floor spreading takes place
16. seismic waves - a wave of energy that travels through the earth and away from earthquakes in all directions
17. plate tectonics - it explains that the earth is divided into pieces in the lithosphere that move around on top of the asthenosphere
18. ocean crust - the thinnest part of the plate
6. divergent - Plates move away from eachother
7. convergent - plates move toward eachother

18. ocean crust - the thinnest part of the plate
20. compound - a substance composed of two or more elements
21. continental crust - the thickest part of a tectonic plate
22. asthenosphere - the soft layer of the mantle on which the tectonic plates move
23. lithosphere - the solid outer layer of the earth that consists of the crust and the rigid upper part of the mantle
