Across
  1. 1. a map showing the shape and elevation of the land surface using contour lines
  2. 4. he created the theory of continental plate and drift
  3. 5. Alfred Wegner’s explanation of continents slowly moving and changing their positions relative to one another
  4. 7. this is created by a divergent bounduary
  5. 8. intervals difference in elevation between any two contour lines on a topographic map
  6. 10. the shape of the Earth’s surface and the way its physical features are arranged, especially in terms of their positions and elevations
Down
  1. 2. the outer most layer of the Earth (lithosphere) is divided into contiguous sections (plates) that move relative to each other causing continental drift, seafloor spreading, and the formation of major physical features of the Earth’s surface
  2. 3. On a topographic map, it is demonstrated by hatched lines, which point inward to the bottom.
  3. 6. The lines showing or change in elevation on a topographic map
  4. 9. a path along the Pacific Ocean characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes
