Slaty_cleavage_is_parallel_to_the_direction_of_the_weakest_stress_applied. Which_type_of_fold_has_rocks_folding_up_in_the_middle?- _Correct_answer~Anticline(Anticlines_are_also_known_as_upfolds.)

Which_of_the_following_terms_best_describes_the_orientation_of_the_fold_in_Figure_ 1 ?_- _Correct_answer~Symmetrical(The_limbs_both_dip_downward_at_the_same_angle,b ut_in_different_directions.) Which_kind_of_fold_is_visible_in_Figure_3?- Correct_answer~Syncline(Synclines_are_smile-shaped_folds_also_called_downfolds)) Which_fold_orientation_is_visible_in_Figure_2?- _Correct_answer~Overturned(Note_how_the_limbs_are_dipping_in_the_same_directi on,_but_at_different_angles.) A_cross- section_of_a_monocline_is_shown_below._Use_what_you_learned_in_the_video_to_lab el_the_parts_of_the_monocline_and_the_directional_forces_that_created_it. Drag_the_appropriate_labels_to_their_respective_targets.Not_all_labels_will_be_used.

  • Correct_answer~Starting_from_the_top,moving_counterclockwise: Uplifted_Sedimentary_Rocks Half_Arrow_pointing_up_and_to_right. Half_Arrow_pointing_down_and_to_the_left. Crystsalline_Basement_Rocks The_San_Rafael_Swell_is_a_large_kidney- bean_shaped_monocline_in_central_Utah.This_feature_extends_for 75 _miles_from_no rth_to_south._The_photo_below_was_taken_from_the_east_flank_of_the_Swell,_lookin g_north.

Choose_the_correct_description_regarding_the_orientation_of_the_beds_at_A,B,and C_in_the_photo.-_Correct_answer~_A_and_C_beds_are_horizontal,B_beds_are_tilted (Beds_in_the_foreground(C)and_at_the_top_of_the_monocline(A)_are_horizontal,w hile_the_beds_shown_at(B)_are_tilted_toward_the_viewer._Due_to_erosion,_all_of_th e_components_of_a_monocline_are_exposed_at_the_Raplee_Monocline) The_parking_lot_of_Calico_Ghost_Town_in_southern_California_is_a_great_place_to_stu dy_folds_due_to_excellent_exposure_and_easy_access._The_series_of_questions_below _focuses_on_types_of_folds_and_their_components. The_photo_below_shows_a_fold_train,_composed_of_two_folds,_and_their_features_ou tlined_by_orange_and_red_lines. Drag_the_appropriate_labels_to_their_respective_targets.Not_all_labels_will_be_used.

Correct_answer~Starting_from_the_upper_left_hand_side_and_working_counter_clock wise: Anticline Shared_Limbe Axial_Plane Syncline (The_photo_shows_a_fold_train_consisting_of_an_anticline_on_the_left_and_a_syncline _on_the_right.The_orange_lines_delineate_a_limb_shared_by_both_the_anticline_and adjacent_syncline._The_red_line_represents_the_axial_plane,_which_divides_the_synclin e_symmetrically.)

Below_is_an_image_showing_part_of_the_Split_Mountain_Anticline_of_Dinosaur_Natio nal_Monument,_Utah._It_is_quite_large,so_we_are_looking_at_only_a_small_portion of_the_anticline's_southern_flank. In_this_photo,_you_can_see_sedimentary_rocks_that_have_been_exposed_by_weatheri ng_and_erosion._Yellow_lines_show_curved_light- colored_sandstone_beds_that_are_exposed_in_canyons_cut_into_the_anticline._Orange _lines_point_out_red-to_orange- colored_dipping_sedimentary_beds_that_have_been_eroded_from_the_upper_part_of_t he_anticline. Concentrate_on_the_series_of_events_that_led_to_the_formation_and_exposure_of_thi s_anticline. Rank_the_following_events_in_order_from_OLDEST_to_YOUNGEST_in_age.- _Correct_answer~Starting_with_Oldest: Sediments_are_deposited_in_a_horizontal_orientation. The_sediments_are_buried_and_lithified_into_sedimentary_rock. Compressional_forces_cause_the_sedimentary_rocks_to_bend_into_an_anticline. Processes_of_weathering_and_erosion_expose_the_interior_of_the_anticline. (Sediments_were_deposited_in_horizontal_layers,_and_then_buried_and_lithified_to_for m_sedimentary_rocks._When_these_rocks_were_subjected_to_compressional_forces,_th ey_deformed_in_a_ductile_manner_by_bending_into_an_anticline._With_time,_the_fold ed_layers_became_exposed_from_processes_of_weathering_and_erosion.)

Look_at_the_figure_below_that_shows_a_slice_through_Earth's_interior_and_note_the star_at_the_top_indicating_an_earthquake_epicenter._From_the_star,_various_paths_are _shown_to_represent_seismic_waves_stemming_from_that_epicenter.

The_paths_of_waves_curve_(refract)_in_the_solid_mantle._Here,_pressure_increases_wi th_depth_and_correlates_with_seismic_velocity_of_rocks_increasing_with_depth._Some waves_will_reflect_off_the_liquid_outer_core,whereas_others_can_pass_through_the outer_core. Determine_which_types_of_waves_would_be_able_to_pass_through_the_various_solid and_liquid_layers_of_Earth._Label_each_path_with_either_P,S,or_P_and_S(if_either type_of_wave_is_possible)_to_indicate_which_type(s)of_body_waves_could_be_repres ented_by_that_path.-Correct_answer~Starting_from_top.Moving_clockwise. P&S_Waves P&S_Waves P_Waves P_Waves P&_S_Waves At_convergent_plate_boundaries,_two_plates_are_moving_toward_each_other._Dependi ng_on_the_relative_density_of_the_rock_that_makes_up_each_plate,one_plate(the_m ore_dense_one)will_slide_beneath_the_other_at_a_subduction_zone. _Because_the_rocks_of_oceanic_crust_are_more_dense_than_those_of_continental_crus t,_it_is_the_plate_with_oceanic_crust_that_is_subducted_below_the_continent._Volcani c_activity_is_common_at_oceanic- continental_subduction_zones._If_the_two_plates_moving_toward_each_other_both_ha ve_oceanic_crust,then_the_denser_of_the_two(typically_the_older_of_the_two)will be_subducted._Volcanic_activity_is_common_at_oceanic- oceanic_subduction_zones._If_both_plates_have_light_continental_crust,_they_will_colli de,_moving_rock_upward_into_mountain_chains,_and_neither_plate_is_subducted_so_t here_is_no_volcanism.
