4. A 22. NO
5. A 23. YES
 _____3. Which of the seismic waves travels the fastest?
A. Instant Wave B. Primary Wave

_____4. Seismology comes from the Greek word “seismos” which means to _________.
A. Wave B. shake

_____5. It is considered to be the slowest wave as it travels on the surface of the Earth.
A. Body Wave B. Surface Wave

_____6. By determining the starting point, we can locate the epicenter of an earthquake. Which waves should we trace first?
A. First P wave and the first S wave B. Second P wave and the second S wave
_____7. If a Magnitude 7 earthquakes occur, what are its possible effects?
A. Find damages to few buildings B. Slight damages to specially designed structures

_____8. A measure of the amount of earth’s shaking that happens at a given location is ________.
A. Intensity B. Magnitude

_____9. What do you call a measure of the size of the seismic waves or the amount of energy released at the source of an
earthquake?
A. Intensity B. Magnitude

_____10. If you experience an earthquake, you must ______________.

A. Stay close to power lines B. Drop, cover and hold

Directions: Write YES if the statement is correct and NO if the statement is wrong.
Write your answer on the blank before each number.

_____1. Scientist suggest that over million years, a long trail of volcanic islands was formed and seamounts across the Pacific
ocean floor.

_____2. Majority of the islands in the Philippine Archipelago are considered as part of the Philippines mobile belt.

_____3. According to the plate tectonic model, the entire lithosphere of the Earth is broken into numerous segments called plates.

_____4. In the Philippines, the highland sections of the Sundaland block of the Eurasian plate includes Palawan, Mindoro and
Zamboanga Peninsula.

_____5. Scientist suggest that there is a source of molten materials from the mantle called mantle plume that formed the
volcanic island chains.

_____6. Continuing plate movement eventually carries the island beyond the hot spot, cutting if off from the magma source, and
volcanism will come to an end.

_____7. As the two plates separate, hot magma is able to rise to fill the gap creating new crust.

_____8. As the Pacific plate moves, different parts of it will be on top of the mantle plume to receive the molten materials, thus
creating the volcanic islands.

_____9. The denser plate sinks, that is why oceanic plate bends downward in an oceanic-continental collision.
_____10. Plate Tectonics is a theory which suggest that Earth’s crust is made up of plates that interact in various ways, thus
producing earthquakes, mountains, and volcanoes
