- a mechanism that helps power plate tectonics. The cooling, dense oceanic slab sinks at a subduction zone and pulls the rest of the plate with it.
- Type of plate boundary where the plates move apart as magma rises to the surface from the asthenosphere.Ex: Mid-ocean ridges; mid-atlantic ridge, East Africa Rift
- Type of plate boundary where plates move toward each other. One plate sinks beneath another along a subduction zone. Descending plate melts, gnerating magma. No subduction zone for two continental plates colliding. Ex: Chile and the West coast of South America, Japan
- the record of the orientation of the magnetic poles with respect to the rock being studied - Remnant magnetism in ancient rocks
- This layer of the mantle makes up the greatest volume of the earth. It is solid.
- Middle layer of the mantle. This layer is “plastic” – the rock is soft and weak, so it is in this layer that the heat convection currents can flow. This powers plate tectonics.
- the outermost layer of the earth which makes up the ocean floor. Thin and dense enough to be subducted.
- This is solid iron-nickel material
- a mechanism that helps power plate tectonics. The creation of new oceanic crust at divergent margins (mid-ocean ridges) pushes the plates away from each other.
Down
- theory that the lithosphere is divided into rigid plates that move over the asthenosphere. Movement is on a global scale, resulting in continental drift and changing the shape, size and location of continents and ocean basins.
- Crust plus Upper mantle. This makes up the tectonic plates
- the outermost layer of the earth. Thick crust, less dense so may not be subducted.
- the magnetic and geographic north and south poles are located at approximately the same place. This is the current day orientation of the magnetic field.
- Type of plate boundary where the plates slide sideways past each other. Example is the San Andreas Fault.
- An idea before plate tectonics that showed that the continents had all fit together into a giant supercontinent (Pangaea) at some point in the past. Continents had somehow moved through the oceans to their present position. Did not provide a mechanism for movement of the continents.
- the idea that new oceanic crust is created at divergent plate margins. The ocean crust and continental crust move together as a unit.
- Solid mantle material
- the magentic north and south poles reverse positions. Magnetic north pole coincides with geographic south pole
18 Clues: Solid mantle material • This is solid iron-nickel material • Crust plus Upper mantle. This makes up the tectonic plates • This layer of the mantle makes up the greatest volume of the earth.

Plate Tectonics Vocabulary Practice 2025-12-12
Across
- The region where two tectonic plates meet; interactions here (convergent, divergent, transform) produce earthquakes, volcanism, and mountain building.
- extremely deep areas in the ocean that are created when one tectonic plate is pushed below another.
- The thicker, less dense crust that makes up the continents; composed mainly of granitic rocks and generally older than oceanic crust.
- A plate boundary where two plates slide past each other horizontally, commonly generating strike-slip earthquakes.
- The thinner, denser type of Earth’s crust that forms most ocean floor; primarily basaltic in composition and continually created at mid-ocean ridges.
- The process by which new oceanic crust forms at mid-ocean ridges as magma rises, cools, and pushes older crust away from the ridge, driving plate motion.
- Vibration or shaking of the ground, as a result of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.
- A large, mobile slab of lithosphere that carries continental and/or oceanic crust and interacts with other plates at its boundaries.
- a crack in Earth's surface caused by moving tectonic plates
Down
- The slow, heat-driven circulation of mantle material that transfers thermal energy and exerts forces on the base of tectonic plates, contributing to their motion.
- A plate boundary where two plates move apart from each other; often associated with seafloor spreading, mid-ocean ridges, and formation of new oceanic crust.
- A convergent boundary where one plate (usually oceanic) sinks beneath another into the mantle, leading to deep ocean trenches, intense earthquakes, and volcanic arcs.
- A ductile, partially molten region of the upper mantle beneath the lithosphere that allows tectonic plates to move because it can flow slowly.
- The rigid outer layer of Earth composed of the crust and the uppermost mantle; it is broken into tectonic plates that move relative to one another.
- A plate boundary where two plates move toward each other; this can produce subduction zones, continental collisions, volcanic arcs, and mountain ranges.
- a mountain or hill with a crater or vent through which lava, rock fragments, hot vapor, and gas are being (or have been) erupted from the earth's crust.
- An underwater mountain chain formed at divergent boundaries where upwelling magma creates new oceanic crust and elevated topography along the spreading center.
- The pattern of symmetrical, alternating magnetic polarity recorded in oceanic crust on either side of mid-ocean ridges; evidence for seafloor spreading and past geomagnetic reversals.
- The unifying theory that explains the large-scale motions of Earth’s lithosphere through interactions of tectonic plates, accounting for the distribution of earthquakes, volcanoes, mountain ranges, and oceanic
