3. The continental crust is thinner and denser than the oceanic crust.
4 At a convergent plate boundary, the plates move apart from one another
5. Divergent boundary is also called the Strike-slip fault
6 Transform fault boundaries are also known as conservative boundaries
7. Aside from mantle convection, ridge push, sliding, and slab pull are other forces that move
the lithospheric plates
8. Harry Hess is remembered as the originator of the Continental Drift Theory by
hypothesizing in 1912 that the continents are slowly drifting around the Earth and is once a
large landmass called Pangaea
Mantle convection is a process by which thermal convection occurs in the inner layer of the
earth
10 The existence of coal deposits in Antarctica suggested that it was once located near the
region of the Earth where the climate is enough to support complex life forms such as plants
and tall trees
