are not active, but the volcanoes on the island of Hawaii are active. Which best
evaluates the student’s claim?

A. The student is correct because the Pacific Plate moved, carrying older volcanic islands away
from the hot spot.
B. The student is correct because the hot spot moved away from the older volcanic islands.
C. The student is incorrect because the hot spot remained stationary, forming both older and newer volcanoes.
D. The student is incorrect because the hot spot is rising to be closer to Earth’s surface.

Wednesday:
The Appalachian Mountains are located on the North American plate. They are not as tall as mountains located elsewhere on the plate.
Which two forces act to reduce the height of the mountains?
A. erosion by water and ice 
B. crystallization of minerals in the crust
C. deposition of sediments      
D. melting of rock at high elevations
E. weathering due to wind
Thursday:
1. Why are the Himalayan mountain still growing taller?
2. How is it possible to find marine fossils at the top of the Himalayan Mountains?

Wednesday:
Which statement accurately explains what is occurring at the Arabian and African plates located near plate boundary Y in Figure 1?
A. The energy driving the processes of plate tectonics comes primarily from the gravitational attraction of the Moon on Earth and radiant energy supplied by the Sun.
B. New seas can form from divergent plate boundaries, where two plates are moving away from each other.
C. River erosion changes the shape of the tectonic plates, which changes the direction of the plates’ movement.
D. Larger plates can move several hundred meters per year, but smaller plates can move more than one meter per year.

Thursday:
Where would you find a trench?
Why do they form?

Friday: 
Which identifies and explains a plate boundary from Figure 1 where mountains that are tens of thousands of feet above sea level are expected to form?
A. Z; transform plate boundaries result in a large number of volcanoes and earthquakes that help build up tall mountains.
B. X; oceanic divergent plate boundaries lead to upwelling of massive amounts of molten material that often creates tall mountains.
C. X; continental divergent plate boundaries create rift valleys on one side of the boundaries and tall mountains on the opposite side.
D. Z; convergent plate boundaries cause one or more of the plates to thrust upward, creating tall mountains.
