Read the lab we'll be doing today under the Objective #3 activities. What questions do you have about the procedure?
Using the diagram below, explain all of the stages of the rock cycle. Then, explain why the rock cycle is environmentally important. When you're done, get up and continue working on the Geology activities.
a) Explain how volcanoes form at subduction boundaries.
b) Explain how earthquakes occur at either a subduction boundary or a transform boundary. When you're finished, continue working on the Geology Activities at the back lab tables. They need to be completed by Wednesday - after that, we're moving on! a) Summarize the diagram below that shows the tectonic cycle (theory of plate tectonics). b) Describe two environmental consequences of the tectonic cycle.
Why would we study plate tectonics in an environmental science class?
Go get a laptop and go to Juno to check out how you did on your final exam. Also take a look at the FRQs you write for the final exam as well. In the answer to this journal, describe what you did well on and what you didn't do well on, and why.
