Convergent Plate Boundary
Across
- 3. the mountain range in Asia where the highest peak, Mt. Everest, is located
- 5. the outer portion of the earth
- 6. in oceanic - ____________ convergence, a continental volcanic arc is formed
- 8. during oceanic - ____________ convergence, a volcanic island arc is formed
- 10. an event in which a slab of rock/crust thrusts/bends downward into the mantle
- 11. a large group of tall mountains formed by the convergence of two continental crusts
- 13. it is a result of the continuous grinding of plates against each other
- 14. a boundary where the crustal plates are moving apart
Down
- 1. a boundary produced when two plates slide past each other
- 2. a series of ocean waves with very long wavelengths (typically hundreds of kilometers) caused by large-scale disturbances of the ocean
- 4. a mass of molten rock formed at depth, including dissolved gases and crystals
- 7. a depression in the seafloor produced by the subduction process and it is the deepest part of the ocean
- 8. when two oceanic crusts collide, the __________ oceanic crust will undergo a subduction process
- 9. a boundary in which two plates move toward/collide with other
- 12. in oceanic-continental convergence, the ___________ crust will undergo a subduction process
