22. What type of fault is the San Andreas Fault in California? 23. What are vibrations caused by earthquakes? 24. What type of waves move along the Earth’s surface, not through its interior? 25. What type of waves are the fastest waves that are the first to reach any particular location after an earthquake? 26. These waves travel at the same time as P-waves but at about half the speed. Therefore they are the second waves to arrive at a particular location? 27. What is an instrument that constantly records ground movement? 28. How does earthquake energy travel? 29. What are 2 ways volcanoes are constructive? 30. What are 2 ways volcanoes are destructive? 31. What is the scientific belief that Earth’s surface is broken into a number of shifting slabs or plates? 32. What is the hypothetical supercontinent that included all of the land masses on Earth? 33. How are primary and secondary waves similar and different? 34. Why might an earthquake’s primary waves, but not secondary waves, reach a location on the other side of the world from the epicenter? 35. Explain how divergent, convergent, and transform boundaries occur and illustrate each. 36. How do hot spots occur?
