Question

1- By putting events in relative order, scientists can use that order to determine precisely how long geologic event took place.

True

False

What geological setting(s) would you expect to produce seismic activity?

A convergent boundary is associated with a(n) ______ continental margin?

Which type of plate boundary is associated with most of Earth’s major mountain belts?

Ophiolite complexes contain slices of oceanic crust that have been thrust above sea level. They have four distinct layers (from top down): deep sea sediment, pillow basalts, ________________, and gabbro.

Explanation / Answer

Question 1) true

Reason : Scientists puts together the geologic time scale(in relative order) to describe the order and duration of major events on Earth for the last4.5 billion years.

Question 2)   geological setting we would expect to produce seismic activity are rift valley, basin, and collisional mountain belt

Question 3 ) active continental margin

Reason : active continental margin is found on the leading edge of the continent where it is crashing into an oceanic plate.

Question 4) convergent plate boundaries is associated with Earth's major mountain belts
