Today in class we learned more about convection of the mantle, and how it causes the plates to shift and move. We then discussed what the effects of these movements were. Below I have two pictures of sponges. The numbered sponges represent the continental plates, and are together to represent Pangea, the supercontinent. Over time, convection of magma (currents caused by differences in temperature) move the plates to cause plate shifting. If you were absent, please complete Act. 47 "Spreading Plates" and answer AQ 1-4. The link for Act. 47 is: http://sepuplhs.org/middle/iaes/students/simulations/sepup_plate5.html ![]()
