Earth Science 12 Jeopardy Template

Boundaries	Magma	volcanoes	Random	seismic waves and faults
100 Where is the youngest sea floor loacated? adjacent to the rift or mid Atlantic ridge.	100 What type of magma has low levels of silica? basaltic or mafic	100 What type of plate collision has only earthquakes but not volcanoes? continent-continent convergence	100 What is a hotspot? when plates move and a heat source stays stationary and forms new volcanoes	100 What type of seismic wave causes the most damage? L waves, or surface waves
200 At a Covergent boundary where there is a continental/continental collision, what forms? Mountain Ranges	200 What type of magma forms shield volcanoes? basaltic or mafic	200 What type of volcano is the least explosive? Shield	200 What is used to find the distance to the epicenter? difference in arrival times of p and s waves	200 What type of seismic waves arrives at the seismic station first? p waves (primary waves)
300 At a convergent boundary where there is a continental/oceanic collison what forms? explosive composite volcanoes	300 What happens to viscosity as the amount of silica in magma increases? viscosity increases	300 What type of volcano is the most explosive composite volcanoes	300 Where are 3 places that earthquakes are most likely to occur? Ring of Fire, Hmalayan collision zone, and mid-Atlantic ridge	300 Which type of fault is caused by conpressional stress and moves a block upward Reverse fault
400 At a convergent boundary where there is a oceanic/oceanic collison, what forms? Ocean volcanic island chain	400 What is the definition of viscosity resistance to flow	400 What type of volcano is the smalles and is made of pyroclastic rock? Cinder cones	400 What depth of earthquakes are most common at subduction zones? deep earthquakes	400 What type of fault that moves vertically and is caused by tensional stress and forms fault block mountains? normal fault
500 What type of boundary forms the volcanoes in the pacific northwest? convergent	500 What type of magma would produce sheild volcanoes? low silica and gases	500 What type of volcano would carry ashes a great distance, across state? composite volcano	500 The place on land directly above where the rocks moved during an earthquake, that has the most violent shaking? epicenter	500 Which type of fault is caused by shear stress and only has horizontal movement? strike slip fault
