Question

Step 1 see the attached map  

Each dot on this map represents a place where earthquakes commonly occur. The color of the dot represents at what depth in Earth's crust the rupture begins: shallow (0 to 70 km), intermediate (70 to 300 km) or deep (300 to 700 km).

 

Step 2: Annotate this map

Make notes by drawing on the map based on the three types of plate boundaries, which are divergent, convergent, and transform.

 

Your annotations MUST include at least 5 of the following types of notes:

  • a line or set of lines that connect the dots
  • a label indicating the type of plate boundary that coincides with a particular group of earthquakes
  • a label indicating the type(s) of features that you would expect to find near a particular group of earthquakes
  • additional symbols plotted on the map (and in the map key) to indicate the presence of mountains, volcanoes, etc...
  • arrows to show the relative direction of plate movement
  • observations that relate to your own personal experience with an area shown on this map
  • questions or comments

You will want to include at least 10 annotations on the map from at least 5 of the categories bulleted above.

When drawing Do not use the colors purple, orange, or green to annotate on the map
