NAME:
GEOL 1101 LAB #6 PLATE TECTONICS
1. List at least 5 lines of evidence that Wegener and other early workers (pre-1960) used to support the theory of “continental drift”.
2. Below are pictures of different types of plate boundaries. Name each type shown and give an example.
TYPES OF PLATE BOUNDARIES ARE: ocean-ocean divergent (Mid Ocean Ridge);
continent-continent divergent (continental rift); ocean-ocean convergent (island arc subduction); ocean-continent convergent (continental volcanic arc subduction);
continent-continent convergent (continental collision); transform
