WHATS MORE
ACTIVITY A
1. Plate
2. fault
3. Volcanic arc
4. Divergent
5. Convergent
6. Transform
7. Fold
8. Mountain
9. Ridge
10. Valley
ACTIVITY B
They are formed when the plate move because the movement of the plate will
result to three types of plate boundary and each type of plate boundary resulted in a
certain geological features like what is being mentioned in the question.

MODULE 11
WHAT I HAVE LEARNED
ACTIVITY 1.6
1. A piece of granite contained within a sandstone would be (older, younger than
the sandstone. This is an example of the principle of Unconformity, younger
2. A fault cutting through a series of layers of rocks is (older, younger) than the rock
layers. This is an example of the principle of Cross cutting, younger
3. In a series of layers, the youngest layer is on the (bottom, middle, top) of the
sequence. This is an example of the principle of Superposition, top
4. Sedimentary rocks that are folded must be (older, younger) than the forces which
deformed them. This is an example of the principle of Angular conformity
5. In undisturbed layers of rocks, sediments that form sedimentary rock are
deposited in horizontal layers that are (younger, older) This is an example of the
principle of Original horizontality, younger
 MODULE 12
WHAT I CAN DO
Absolute Dating

 Use of numeric value

 Quantitative method
 Radiometric method
 Used to tell the age of rocks

Relative Dating

 Give an idea of the order of geologic events

 Qualitative method
 Use the position of rocks
 Stratigraphic method
 Use sedimentary rocks
 Does not give the true age of rocks
