Match the terms with their definitions.


instrument that detects and records earth vibrations, specifically earthquake waves


the sudden release of stored strain in rocks; this release causes movement along a fault


compression waves caused by movements in the earth's crust that radiate outward from the source of an earthquake


vent in earth's surface through which magma, gases, and ash erupt

1.
elastic rebound

2.
volcano

3.
seismometer/seismograph

4.
seismic waves

Answer 1

instrument that detects and records earth vibrations, specifically earthquake waves = Seismometer

vent in earth's surface through which magma, gases, and ash erupt = Volcano

the sudden release of stored strain in rocks; this release causes movement along a fault = Elastic Rebound

compression waves caused by movements in the earth's crust that radiate outward from the source of an earthquake=Seismic Waves
