I. LESSON TITLE: Processes and Landforms along Plate Boundaries

II. MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING COMPETENCIES (MELCs):
Explain the different processes that occur along the plate boundaries.
(LC Code: S9ES –Ia-j-36.3)
III. CONTENT/CORE CONTENT:
Processes and landforms along plate boundaries

DIRECTION: Choose the letter of the correct answer and write it in your answer sheet.

1. Imagine you are a geologist conducting research on volcanic activity. In which scenario would you NOT
expect to find the formation of volcanoes?
A. When two oceanic plates converge
B. When two continental plates converge
C. When an oceanic and a continental plate converge
D. None of the above
2. You are exploring the geological processes beneath the Earth's surface. You observe a plate sinking into
the mantle due to its high density. What geological feature is likely to result from this process?
A. A mountain range C. Volcanoes
B. Deep trenches D. Fault Lines
3. You are a seismologist monitoring seismic activities. You detect a shallow earthquake. What geological
event or process is most likely associated with this seismic activity?
A. Volcanic eruption C. an oceanic tsunami
B. Subduction process D. mountain formation

4. While studying tectonic plate interactions, you come across the convergence of a continental and an
oceanic plate. One of your colleagues makes a statement. Which statement does not align with the concept
of subduction at this boundary?
A. One plate carries water along with it.
B. One plate is denser.
C. The mantle temperature is higher than in the crust.
D. One plate overrides the other.

5. You are investigating the geological consequences of the convergence between two oceanic plates or an
oceanic plate and a continental plate. What geological feature is typically formed in such scenarios?
A. Volcanic island arcs C. rift valleys

D. Oceanic ridges

6. Two continental plates are colliding in a region you are researching. What geological event or process is
most likely to occur as a result of this convergence?
A. Earthquakes
B. Subduction
C. Tsunamis
D. Formation of magma
7. During an underwater expedition, you discover a crack on the ocean floor caused by the interaction of
the oceanic crust with another crust. What is the geological term for this feature?
A. Fault
B. Trench
C. Ridge
D. Fissure

8. You are researching plate movements during convergence. What natural phenomenon often occurs as a
result of this movement?
A. Earthquakes
B. Subduction
C. Magma formation
D. Tsunamis

9. While on a field expedition, you come across a crack on dry ground formed by horizontal plate
movement. What geological feature does this crack represent?
A. Fault
B. Valley
C. Trench
D. Ridge

10. Situation: You are by the water's edge, and you witness a significant upward movement of water due to
a powerful force. What geological event is likely happening on the water's surface?
A. Ocean wave
B. Typhoon
C. Tsunami
D. Ocean tide
