Question

How did the lab activities help you answer the lesson question: What effect does plate movement have on geologic events and structures at Earth’s surface? What did you learn from conducting this lab? Make it short

Answer 1

The lab activities demonstrated how plate movement directly influences geologic events and structures, such as earthquakes, volcanic activity, and mountain formation. By simulating tectonic interactions, I observed the varying impacts of converging, diverging, and transforming plates on surface topography. This hands-on experience reinforced my understanding of plate tectonics and illustrated the dynamic nature of Earth's surface shaped by these movements.
