Summative Test

The document is a test for Grade 10 students covering topics related to plate tectonics and geology. It contains 20 multiple choice questions testing knowledge of concepts such as: 1) Why oceanic crust subducts beneath continental crust. 2) Features expected at converging plate boundaries like volcanoes and mountain ranges. 3) Deeper features like trenches that indicate plate boundaries. 4) Types of plate boundaries and the motions and geological features associated with convergent, divergent, and transform boundaries.
