Earthquake-movement of the ground that occurs when rocks inside Earth pass their elastic limit, break suddenly, and experience elastic rebound
2)Shield Volcano-large broad volcano with gently sloping sides that is formed by the buildup of basaltic layers
Composite Volcano-steep-sided volcano formed from alternating layers of violent eruptions of tephra and quieter eruptions of lava
3)Focus-point deep inside Earth where energy is released, causing an earth quake
Epicenter-point of Earth's surface directly above an earthquake's focus
4)Seismic Wave-earthquake waves, including primary waves, secondary waves, and surface waves.
Seismograph-instrument used to record seismic waves
5)Tsunami-powerful seismic sea wave that begins over an ocean-floor earthquake, can reach 30 m in height when approaching land, and can cause destruction in coastal areas.
Seismic Wave-earthquake waves, including primary waves, secondary waves, and surface waves.
6)Epicenter-point of Earth's surface directly above an earthquake's focus
Earthquake-movement of the ground that occurs when rocks inside Earth pass their elastic limit, break suddenly, and experience elastic rebound
7)Cinder Cone Volcano-relatively small volcano formed by moderate to explosive eruptions of tephra
