Evidently Continental?

Objectives:
 Review the continental drift theory.
 Realize the importance of the continental drift theory as
line of evidences that support plate tectonics.

Materials:
 Cartolina/Manila paper
 Art materials
 Pentel pen

Procedure:

Using the given cluster diagram, supply necessary

concept that will relate the evidences of continental drift theory.

J. (Evaluation) Read the following questions. Choose the letter of the best
answer. Write your answer in your notebook. (15 minutes)

1. Which of the following types of evidence best supports the

theory of plate tectonics?
A. precise measurements of the thickness of continental crust
B. precise measurements of the thickness of oceanic crust
C. precise measurements of the relative motions of pieces of
Earth’s
lithosphere
D. precise measurements of the relative motions of Earth’s inner
and outer cores
2. Why did people not believe in Wegener’s theory about
continental drift?
A. There was a competing theory at the time that was more
 believable
B. There was no data showing the continents ever moved
C. The scientists did not know the force responsible for moving
the
continent
D. The scientist presenting the data was unreliable
3. Which of the following discoveries would provide the best
evidence that
Earth's continents had once been part of a large landmass that
has since broken apart?
A. fossils of different species of organisms found
B. fossils of the same species of organism found
C. fossils of organisms that lived during the same time period
found
D. fossils of organisms that lived hundreds of millions of years
apart found
4. How is plate tectonics supported by the apparent fit of the
continental coastlines?
A. The continents appear to have once been joined together and
to have since drifted apart.
B. The continents appear to have once been joined to oceanic
crust and to have since been lifted above sea level.
C. The continents appear to have once been joined to additional
continents that have since been destroyed.
D. Plate tectonics is not supported by the apparent fit of the
continental coastlines.
5. According to plate tectonics, which of the following is true?
A. Continents never move but the plates underneath them do
B. Earthquakes happen in the middle of continents
C. The continents used to all be connected in one continent
D. The youngest rock is found at the tops of mountains
