Full Description
This exam will scrutinize the geological impacts of divergent and convergent boundaries. Students will explain how these boundaries influence lithospheric features and the formation of various geological structures.
The study of boundary interactions is essential for understanding continental drift, oceanic trench formation, and volcanic activity. Knowledge in this area informs disaster preparedness and risk assessment related to geological hazards.
Students will be evaluated on their ability to convey a clear understanding of processes at divergent and convergent boundaries, including the formation of features like rift valleys and subduction zones.
Preparation should include a review of the geological processes and features associated with both boundary types to facilitate comprehensive verbal discussion.
Sample Questions
- What geological features are formed at divergent boundaries?
- How does subduction occur at convergent plate boundaries?
