Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

What evidence was Alfred Wegner missing?
how the continents moved
____ the name of the supercontinent that existed in the PALEOZOIC era.
PANGAEA
One of the plate edges can sink below the other in this type of movements occur.
CONVERGENT
These plates move sideways past each other and create a break in the Earth’s crust called a fault.
TRANSFORM
New crust can form at places in the ocean where two plates pull apart from each other.

The continents of the Earth has cracks. These separate sections are called plates. How many plates are there? 10, 17, 20, 27?
17
A theory stating that the Earth's continents have been joined together and have moved away from each other at different times in the Earth's history
CONTINENTAL DRIFT
The theory describing how Earth’s plates move and what happens when they interact with each other.
PLATE TECTONICS
______ moves the plates by rolling them along like a conveyor belt
CONVECTION
______ is sliding past each other
TRANSFORMING
______ IS COLLIDING
CONVERGENT
______ moves plates by pulling them down at subduction zones
GRAVITY
Meteorologist who believed that the Earth was once a supercontinent called Pangaea. As time progressed these continents, moved and drifted apart.
ALFRED WEGNER
He came up with the idea that the continents move because the ocean floor is getting wider.
HARRY HESS
_____ used to project sound waves to detect depths and sizes of objects. This allowed us to finally map the ocean floor!
