Mapping Boundaries with Earthquakes

Mapping Boundaries with Earthquakes is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 3: Earth's Plates in Amplify Science (California) Grade 7.

Key Concepts

Geologists define the edges of these plates by mapping geologic events . When scientists plot the location of earthquakes on a map, they do not appear randomly; they form long, distinct lines.

These lines of seismic activity reveal the plate boundaries . Because the plates are separate pieces, they interact at their edges. This interaction causes shaking, effectively tracing the outline of each plate and allowing scientists to map Earth's hidden structure .
