“EXPLAIN CALIFORNIA’S CURRENT SEISMIC (TECTONIC) SITUATION” Note that you do not need to include the “Basin & Range Extension” in your essay.
As such, there are three main components specific to California that
you can write about: the Transform Plate Boundary, Converging Plate
Boundary, and Diverging Plate Boundary. Since a traditional
college-level essay of 5 paragraphs includes an introduction, 3 body
paragraphs, and a conclusion, you can write one body paragraph on each
of the three plate boundaries that are part of California’s current
tectonic situation (as discussed in lecture). And, be sure to include
some of the key points made in the video lectures and Canvas course
content, such as forces involved, plates involved, type of motion,
location, resultant features on the landscape, etc.
