Dont Crack Under Pressure Man in the Moon Mixed Bag Finale Not all who wander are lost It is the type of map projection seen here. Gnomonic Projection Map 100 200 Not all who wander are lost When the slope is steep, the contour lines look like this. Close together 300 Not all who wander are lost This is a computer based program that layers various maps to monitor various changes in an area. GIS 400 Not all who wander are lost Describe the effect logging (deforestation) may have on 4 of Earths spheres. 1)Biosphere 2)Lithosphere 3)Atmosphere 4)Hydrosphere 500 Not all who wander are lost Small changes in telescope positions on Earth allows us to monitor plate motion, predict EQ How can data from VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) be used in mapmaking today? 100 Rock Stars: Compare and contrast the formation of intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks. Intrusive= magma hardens beneath Earths surface Extrusive= lava hardens (above Earths surface) 200 Rock Stars: A rock has a porphyritic texture. What can you conclude about the rock? Very different sized minerals minerals crystallize at different temperatures or at different rates 300 Rock Stars: Apply what you know about cooling rates to explain differences in crystal sizes. Slow cooling rates large, well-formed crystals Fast cooling rates small crystals that might or might not be well formed. 400 Rock Stars: Analyze the environmental conditions to explain why most chemical sedimentary rocks form mainly in areas that have high evaporation rates. -Evaporationcontinuously removes freshwater from the body of water -Helps to maintain high concentrations of minerals in the remaining water Minerals precipitate out to form chemical sed. rock! 500 Rock Stars: Decide which of the following materials are not minerals, and explain why: petroleum, wood, coal, steel, concrete, glass. Petroleum= neither solid nor inorganic [not] Wood & Coal= organic [not] Steel & Concrete=dont occur naturally [not] Glass (natural or synthetic)= doesnt have crystalline structure [not] 100 I Like To Move It Move It! List the 3 types of convergent plate boundary interactions. 1.Cont/Cont. 2.Cont./Oce. 3.Oce./Oce. 200 I Like To Move It Move It! Wegener had plenty of evidence to support his theory of continental drift. Why was his theory not widely accepted at that time? He couldnt explain how or why the continents moved. The technology needed to discover seafloor spreading and convection currents didnt exist at that time. 300 I Like To Move It Move It! I 400 I Like To Move It Move It! Describe how the Hawaiian islands were formed/are forming. Hot spot is stationary and mantle plume magma released in stream up to crust. Volcano/volcanic island forms and moves with plate. As plate moves, stream of magma breaks and new volcano/volcanic island forms in an arc of islands as magma cools/hardens. 500 I Like To Move It Move It! S 100 Dont Crack Under Pressure Why is it incorrect to refer to a tsunami as a tidal wave? Tsunami is caused by sudden displacement in ocean floor and increases volume of water moving ashore but not necessarily in height. NOT CONTROLLED BY MOON/SUN LIKE TYPICAL OCEAN WAVES 200 Dont Crack Under Pressure Name the type of fault shown here Normal Fault 300 Dont Crack Under Pressure Arrange the 3 types of waves in order from slowest to fastest AND from least destructive to most destructive Slow Fast Surface, S, P Least Most Destructive P, S, Surface 400 Dont Crack Under Pressure Why dont scientists typically use the Richter Scale anymore? Richter used locally and can only measure EQ between ; not accurate enough & requires Richter device. 500 Dont Crack Under Pressure How do earthquakes help scientists learn more about Earths core composition? P waves: can travel through core but deflected change in type of matter S waves : cant travel through core (outer/liquid) transverse & cant travel through liquid 100 Man in the Moon: 200 Man in the Moon: a 300 Man in the Moon: t 400 Man in the Moon: T 500 Man in the Moon: G 100 Mixed Bag Finale: What do the opposite sides of a dice add up to? 7 200 Mixed Bag Finale: Marys father has 5 daughters Nana, Nene, Nini, Nono. What is the fifth daughters name? Mary 300 Mixed Bag Finale: When at a baseball game, you may see people holding up this type of sign. What does it mean? K=strikeout while swinging Backwards K=strikeout while looking. 400 Mixed Bag Finale: Rats and what other animal cannot vomit? Horses 500 Mixed Bag Finale: What breakfast food gets its name from the German word for "stirrup? The bagel
