Exercise:

1. The following figure represents the seismic waves velocity, in an imaginary planet. Answer the questions:

• What is a discontinuity? How many discontinuities do you observe? Where are they?
• Is it a homogeneus or heterogeneus internal structure? Explain your answer.
• How many layers are there? Describe their structure and states of matter.

Plate tectonics explained.

CONVERGENT BOUNDARY: Lithosphere is destroyed.

Oceanic plate vs. oceanic plate: Island arc.

Oceanic plate vs. continental plate: Volcanic arc (Orógeno andino o térmico).

Continental plate vs. continental plate: Collisional orogen (Orógeno de colisión, obducción).

DIVERGENT BOUNDARY: Plates separation creates new lithosphere, when magma released in ridges, solidifies.

Rift valley formation --> mid-ocean ridge (valle rift--> dorsal oceánica).

Remember there are also TRANSFORM  BOUNDARIES. I couldn't find a good animation of it. Plates move following the same line but opposite directions.

HOT SPOT: Hot upwelling mantle materials, or mantle plumes, that come from the mantle-core limit; they ascend to the upper mantle; generating lithosphere phenomena.

Volcanic archipielago and intraplate vulcanism.

Living things I. Cells and review.

Biosphere refers to all the living things on Earth. From the smallest single-celled bacteria, to the huge blue whale. All of us share some characteristics, but there are also some features that make the difference.

Let's discover characteristics we share, but also the differences that exist among us. Because you are unique, right?

We are all made up of cells

Cells are the structural and functional unit of living things. This means we are built of cells (like little bricks); and it also means that all the things we do, depend on them (little machines that carry out functions). As we are not mushrooms, neither pines; there must be different cells according to the living thing in question.

Check this presentation about the different types of cells and their organelles.

Types of cells from irenebyg

Yeah... pictures are cool, but we live in a multi-dimensional universe, so let's check at least a 3D representation of a cell.

What is a cell?

Depending on their genetic material, cells are classified in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Search on Google images pictures of each one. How do we find their DNA?

What do all cells have in common? Although prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are different, they share 3 elements. Compare both cell types, and try to find out what they have in common.

The Geosphere: Minerals and rocks. (1ESO)

As you may know, the Earth has four different layers: the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere and the geophere. The geosphere is the largest layer, and it is made of rocks.

But, what are rocks?


I also post a video about the rock cycle.

Microorganisms culture.

Microorganisms are those microscopic living things invisible for us, but essential for all living beings' existence. It is true sometimes those microorganisms could be harmful for human beings. That is the reason we have an efficient immune system that prevents us from becoming ill too often.
Nonetheless, many microorganisms are innocuous or even beneficial, as bread or wine yeasts, or bacteria in our intestine.

Even you do not believe it, on your hands, in the air surrounding you, inside your mouth, there are thousands of microorganisms. Due to this practice, we are going to check all this, to show you I am not telling lies.
In this practice we are going to prove we live surrounded by microorganisms, and we hardly ever get ill because of this.

Here you have the practice sheet download link.
