    Data/results
  • What is magma made of?
    melted rock
  • Which layer of the Earth is divided up into huge tectonic plates?
    Lithosphere
  • What part(s) of the geosphere make up the lithosphere?
    The upper mantle and crust
  • This part of the lab report poses a "question" about the activity
    Objective

    Earthquake
  • What layer of earth changes because of the convection cycle?
    Crust
  • What are hot spots?
    Areas where eruptions occur away from plate boundaries
  • The huge pieces of the earth's crust are called ____________________________.
    plates
  • The outside layer of the earth is called ______________________.
    crust
  • Where do convection cycles happen?
    mantle
  • If magma increases in temperature (get hot) what will happen?
    It moves up (rises)
  • Extends from the center of the core to the surface of the crust. a)Geosphere b)Atmosphere c)Hydrosphere d)Biosphere
    a) geosphere
  • What layer of the Earth is the arrow pointing to?
    the mantle
  • What is the final step in a lab report?
    Conclusion
  • Is the layer of rock between the Earth's crust and core.
    Mantle
  • Where is a volcano most likely to form? (convergent/divergent/transform plate boundary)
    On a convergent plate boundary
  • This part of the lab report includes the list of equipment or chemicals needed
    Materials
  • This part of the lab report includes any warning hazards
    Procedure
  • If magma decreases in temperature (cooler) what will happen to the magma?
    It will move down (sink)
  • This part of the lab includes steps that gives instructions
    Procedure
  • ____________ is a dense, destructive mass of very hot ash, lava fragments, and gases ejected explosively from a volcano and typically flowing down slope at great speed.
    Pyroclastic Flow
  • Which is made up mostly of iron and nickel.
