Q4- SCIENCE 7- WEEK 1_LC 1.pptx quarter 4

The document is an educational resource focused on teaching students about earthquakes and geological faults, particularly in relation to the Pacific Ring of Fire. It outlines learning objectives, activities, and vocabulary related to fault classification, seismic activity, and the relationship between tectonic plate interactions and earthquakes. Key topics include the description of the Pacific Ring of Fire, types of faults (normal, reverse, and strike-slip), and the importance of understanding seismic risks in their geographical context.

C. Developing and Deepening Understanding Describe the Pacific Ring of Fire  The Pacific Ring of Fire is an area of intense seismic activity that circles the Pacific Ocean. It's characterized by a chain of volcanoes and frequent earthquakes.  This ring is a result of tectonic plate interactions where the Pacific Plate collides with other plates, creating subduction zones that trigger volcanic activity and earthquakes.
C. Developing and Deepening Understanding Classify Faults by Angle and Slip Fault Plane Angle The angle of the fault plane determines the type of fault: Normal, Reverse/Thrust, or Strike-Slip. Direction of Slip The direction of slip along the fault plane classifies the fault further, depending on whether the blocks move up or down.
C. Developing and Deepening Understanding Normal Faults Hanging Wall The block above the fault plane, moving downward. Footwall The block below the fault plane, moving upward.
C. Developing and Deepening Understanding Reverse (Thrust) Faults Hanging Wall The block above the fault plane, moving upward. Footwall The block below the fault plane, moving downward.
C. Developing and Deepening Understanding Strike-Slip Faults 1 Right-Lateral Blocks move horizontally past each other, with the opposite side moving to the right. 2 Left-Lateral Blocks move horizontally past each other, with the opposite side moving to the left.
C. Developing and Deepening Understanding Seismic Activities and Location 1 Plate Boundaries Most earthquakes occur along plate boundaries, wher tectonic plates interact. 2 Fault Zones Within these boundaries, fault zones are areas of weakness where rocks fracture and slip, leading to earthquakes. 3 Seismic Risk Countries located on or near active fault zones face a higher risk of
Key Takeaways 1 Fault Classification Faults are classified by their angle and slip direction, impacting seism activity. 2 Pacific Ring of Fire This area is prone to volcanic activity and earthquake due to tectonic plate interactions. 3 Seismic Risk Understanding fault types and their location helps assess seismic risk and prepare for potential earthquakes.
C. Developing and Deepening Understanding C. Developing and Deepening Understanding WORKED EXAMPLE The teacher will show the picture to the class and ask them the questions that follow.  What do you see in the picture?  Why is it called the Pacific Ring of Fire?  Why are there a lot of volcanoes in the Pacific Ring of Fire?  Aside from volcanic eruptions, do you know other phenomena in the Pacific Ring of Fire?
Besides volcanic eruptions, the Pacific Ring of Fire is primarily characterized by frequent and powerful earthquakes, which occur due to the intense tectonic activity along the plate boundaries in this region; this accounts for roughly 90% of the world's earthquakes. Other phenomena associated with the Ring of Fire include: Tsunamis:Large earthquakes along the Ring of Fire can trigger devastating tsunamis, especially when they occur underwater near populated coastlines. Subduction zones: The Ring of Fire is primarily formed by the process of subduction, where one tectonic plate dives beneath another, creating significant geological activity. Ocean trench formation: Deep ocean trenches are often found along the Ring of Fire where the subducting plate sinks beneath the overriding plate. Island arcs: Chains of volcanic islands, like Japan and the Philippines, are frequently formed along the Ring of Fire due to subduction activity.
