Our shaking world project

Summery
Faults
Fault is large fractures in earth crust. There are types of faults, normal fault, reverse fault and strike-slip. Normal fault when rocks move down. Reveres fault is when the rocks move up ward. The last fault is slip- strike is when rocks slide pass one another in opposite directions these fault also cause on earthquakes and tsunami because if their fractures in earth crust. Most earthquakes occurs faults
Earth interior
Earth is made of 3 layers. 1) Crust 2) mantle 3) core. The crust is the part of lithosphere. Mantle is liquid layer. And the core has 2 types of core, one of them is other core and another one is outer core.  Inner core is solid and inner is the mantle and liquid iron.
Volcanoes
Volcanoes are the opening in the earth that erupts gases, ash and lava. There are 3 types of volcanoes. The first volcanoes are shield volcanoes another volcanoes is cinder cone volcanoes and the last volcano is composite volcanoes. Shield volcanoes are volcano volcanic cone made up of larges of harder lava. Cinder cone volcano an opening in the earth that erupts gases ash and lava. Composite volcano made up of alternating lays of lava is rock particles.
Critical thinking question
Do you agree with the theory of plate tectonics? Why or why not?
Yes I am agree with the theory of plate tectonics because to be cover with them to covering idea. The 3 piece of evidence is continental drift, seafloor spreading and Pangaea.
Reflection
1)        The most enjoy about this project is to do lab.
2)      The most challenging for you during this project is making reference because its make me confuse.
3)       I learn from this project how it’s hard to make quiz.
4)      Yes I improve  the  time because I was absent but in this time I improve and try my best to work  class mates.
