Answer
  • Mantle (Upper)
  • Crust
  • Core
  • Plate
  • Continent

Question 2

Question

Answer
  • Mantle
  • Core

  • Crust

Question 3

Question
The crust is the outermost layer of the Earth.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 4

Question
What are the two kinds of crust?
Answer
  • Continental Crust
  • Plated Crust
  • Oceanic Crust
  • Icelandic Crust

Question 5

Question
The entire lithosphere of the Earth is broken into numerous segments called plates
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 6

Question
The plates move very slowly but constantly, and this movement is called tectonics.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 7

Question
What are the three types of seismic waves released by an Earthquake?
Answer
  • P-wave
  • D-wave
  • S-wave
  • C-wave
  • L-wave

Question 8

Question
It uses distance information from three seismic stations to locate the earthquake epicenter.
Answer
  • Triangulation Method
  • Pyramid Method
  • Quantum Method

Question 9

Question
What is the formula to compute for the distance of an earthquake's epicenter from each seismic stations?
Answer
  • d = Td/8 seconds x 100 km
  • d = Td x 100 %

Question 10

Question
The places on Earth where most of the earthquakes originated or some mountains and volcanoes were formed mark the boundaries of each lithospheric plate.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 11

Question
What are the three distinct types of plate boundaries, which are differentiated by the type of movement they exhibit?
Answer
  • Divergent
  • Convergent
  • Transform Fault
  • Insurgent

Question 12

Question
The denser oceanic crust (Plate A) undergoes what we call subduction process or the bending of the crust towards the mantle.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 13

Question
What is the deepest part of the ocean?
Answer
  • Hole
  • Trench
  • Triangle

Question 14

Question
The subduction of plate can cause earthquakes at varying depths.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 15

Question
Converging oceanic plates will cause formation of trenches, and these trenches will become sources of earthquakes.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 16

Question
A series of ocean waves with very long wavelengths (typically hundreds of kilometers) caused by large-scale disturbances of the ocean.
Answer
  • Storm
  • Flood
  • Tsunami
  • Earthquake

Question 17

Question
Volcanic island arc is a chain of volcanoes positioned in an arc shape.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 18

Question
Many parts of the Philippines originated from oceanic-oceanic convergence. This resulted from the collision of two oceanic plates, with one of the plates diving under the other.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 19

Question
When two continental plates converge, a collision zone is formed.
Answer
  • True
  • False

Question 20

Question
What plate boundary is formed when they tend to move apart?
Answer
  • Convergent
  • Insurgent
  • Divergent

Answer
  • Transform Fault
  • Convergent
  • Insurgent
