1Who proposed Plate Tectonic Theory in 1915?
- AAlfred Wegener
- BRichard Burton
- CNed Kelly
- DDavid Harvey
2The theory states that the lithosphere is split into [blank_start]plates[blank_end] which float on the mantle and core of the Earth.
- Aplates
3The crust is thick compared to the mantle and core.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
4The core causes the temperature of the mantle to [blank_start]go up[blank_end]. This causes [blank_start]convection currents[blank_end], which cause hot magma to [blank_start]rise[blank_end] and cool magma to [blank_start]sink[blank_end] in the mantle. The convection of the magma in these currents drags the plates in the crust in the [blank_start]same[blank_end] direction as the current through the processes of [blank_start]ridge[blank_end] push and [blank_start]slab[blank_end] pull.

5The core of the Earth is approximately 6000 degrees Celsius.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
6How many types of plate are there?
- A1
- B2
- C3
- D4
7Continental Plates are much heavier than oceanic plates.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
8Oceanic crust is composed mostly of [blank_start]basalt[blank_end], has a thickness of approximately [blank_start]5-10km[blank_end] and is [blank_start]younger than[blank_end] continental crust.
- Abasalt
- Blimestone
- Cgranite
- Dsandstone
- E5-10km
- F10-20km
- G1-5km
- H20-200km
- Iyounger than
- Jolder than
- Kthe same age as
9When a continental and oceanic plate collide, which is subducted?
- AContinental plate
- BOceanic plate
- CNeither
10Continental crust is composed mostly of [blank_start]granite[blank_end], has a thickness of approximately [blank_start]20-200km[blank_end] and is [blank_start]older than[blank_end] oceanic crust.
- Agranite
- Bbasalt

- E20-200km
- F10-20km
- G1-5km
- H5-10km
- Iolder than
