Alfred Wegener was considered a fraud and a phony is the science world because he was missing one important detail in his work…
What causes the continents to move?

Another look at the plates…

Imagine Rice boiling, what path of motion is the rice moving in?
It is moving in circles
The water/rice heats and rises then cools at the surface and sinks continuing the circle
*CHANGES IN DENSITY
-Hot Rises
-Cool Sinks
Why does the rice move in circles?
Boiling Water

Convection CurrentsConvection Currents are the
movement of magma in the asthenosphere in circles. (like the rice)
They move around the floating tectonic plates above them

How Convection Works!Magma expands when heated making volume larger making magma less dense therefore it will __________ to the top of more dense magma
•When the magma reaches the surface it cools and contracts becoming _________ _____________ and it will sink.
•The process keeps continuing in a circle or cyclic cycle.

Example 2: Plates Pulling Apart and Pushing Together
![Page 11: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
You don’t have to memorize
Circle and Label where the convection currents are moving plates together and pulling them apart.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE CRUST WHEN THE PLATES ARE MOVING AROUND????
What things do we see at these places?
![Page 13: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Law of Original Horizontality
Rocks are formed in flat horizontal layers
![Page 14: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Tilting
When originally flat lying layers of rocks are tilted at an angle to the ground.
![Page 15: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Tilting Continued:
This happens when the rock layers are being UPLIFTED or COMPRESSED TOGETHER
We also assume that the tilting never exceeded 90 degrees.
It is easier to tilt something up slightly, but to tilt it up and flip it is much harder.
Draw arrows to show direction of stress

Folding
Folding occurs when layers of rocks are compressed.
Think of a sheet of paper, when you push on both ends at the same time it folds!
![Page 17: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Which way are the layers being moved?
![Page 18: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
FaultsA fracture in the Earth along which movement occurs.
When this movement occurs an Earthquake is generated.
There are 3 types of faults
![Page 19: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Normal Faults
Normal faults are the result of pulling forces.
In a normal fault one side is moved down relative to the other.
![Page 20: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Reverse Faults
Reverse faults are the result of compressional forces.
These forces push rock layers on one side UP and over the opposite side.
![Page 21: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Transform Faults
In transform faults the movement is horizontal (side to side) relative to the fault.
The San Andreas Fault is a transform fault.

I. Plate TectonicsI. Plate TectonicsA. Plate Tectonics Theory states that the lithosphere is broken up into 8 major plates that move relative to one another.
![Page 27: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
I. Plate TectonicsI. Plate TectonicsB. Much of Earth’s mountain building, earthquakes, and volcanoes occur at boundaries between plates.

II. Plate Boundaries II. Plate Boundaries (Borderlines between (Borderlines between plates)plates)A. Convergent Plate Boundaries1. Occur when 2 plates converge, or move towards one another.

![Page 31: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
III. Convergent Plate III. Convergent Plate BoundariesBoundariesA. Continental-Continental Boundary1. When 2 continents collide, they bunch up together, because they have approximately the same density. In other words, mountains form.
![Page 32: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
2. The best example of this occurs where the Indian-Australian Plate is colliding with the Eurasian Plate. This collision formed the Himalayas.

Go!

III. Convergent Plate III. Convergent Plate BoundariesBoundariesB. Oceanic-Continental Boundary1. When a continental plate and oceanic plate converge, the oceanic plate sinks below because it is more dense.
![Page 36: Part II: Convection in the Mantle and Crustal Deformation](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649d945503460f94a7c195/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Checkpoint!Recall how it gets hotter as you go deeper into the Earth’s interior…
Visualize what will happen to an oceanic plate as it sinks further and further below continental crust…
Discuss what will happen to that oceanic plate.

III. Convergent Plate III. Convergent Plate BoundariesBoundaries2. This is called a Subduction Zone.◦When the more dense oceanic plate goes under (subducts) the less dense continental crust.
