Crit.BG.2.7. Combine the dynamic model of the internal structure of with the theory of plate tectonics. FCTC-CAA
- Est.BG.2.7.1. It relates the characteristics of the internal structure of the Earth associating them with the Earth surface phenomena: volcanism, seismicity, plate tectonics and orogenesis.
Crit.BG.2.8. Recognize the evidence of continental drift and the expansion of the ocean floor. FCTC-CCL
- Est.BG.2.8.1. It expresses some current evidence of continental drift and the expansion of the ocean floor.
Crit.BG.2.9. Interpret some geological phenomena associated with the movement of the lithosphere and relate them to its location on terrestrial maps. Understand the natural phenomena produced in the contacts of the plates. FCTC-CCL
- Est.BG.2.9.1. Knows and reasonably explains the relative movements of lithospheric plates.
- Est.BG.2.9.2. Interpret the consequences that the movements of the plates have on the relief.
Crit.BG.2.10. Explain the origin of mountain ranges, island arches, and thermal orogens. FCTC
- Est.BG.2.10.1. Identify the causes that originate the main landforms.
Crit.BG.2.11. Contrast the types of lithospheric plates associating them with the same movements and consequences. FCTC-CAA
- Est.BG.2.11.1. It relates the movements of the plates with different tectonic processes.
Crit.BG.2.12. Analyze that the relief, in its origin and evolution, is the result of the interaction between internal and external geological processes. FCTC-CAA
- Est.BG.2.12.1. Interpret the evolution of relief under the influence of external and internal dynamics.
