Movement of Plates

​Describe the possible causes of plate movements.

1. ​Describe and simulate seafloor spreading.

2. ​Illustrate the convection current within the mantle that could possibly affect plate movement.

3. ​Discuss how ridge push and slab pull cause plate movement.

4. ​Explain the causes of plate movement based on Continental Drift Theory and Seafloor Spreading Theory.

5. ​Be aware of the effects of different processes and forces in our environment.

​What are the possible geologic events that can be produced when two lithospheric plates slide past each other?

Create a paper model illustrating the concept of Seafloor Spreading.

Analyze the picture of convection current in the mantle below and answer the questions.

Illustrate the causes of plate movement based on Continent Drift Theory and Seafloor Spreading Theory.
