Across
  1. 2. when water is doing this state change, it can split rocks
  2. 3. pieces of broken rock being carried along
  3. 7. The breaking down (disintegration) or rocks/minerals
  4. 9. Water is squeezed out from between the pieces of rock and crystals of different salts form. The crystals stick the pieces of rock together
  5. 12. an opening in the Earth's crust. It allows hot magma, ash and gases to escape from below the surface
  6. 15. Core, hottest layer of the earth
  7. 16. plate underneath the land
  8. 17. semi-molten rock underneath the earths crust
  9. 19. rock type laid down in layers
  10. 22. remains of dead animals and plants found in rocks
  11. 23. rock type formed by change through heat and pressure
  12. 24. The movement of broken rocks or soil from one location to another
  13. 26. humans live here
  14. 29. deposited rocks build up in layers, called sediments
  15. 33. examples are diamond, ruby or emerald
  16. 34. have rounded edges
  17. 36. a solid, naturally occurring pure substance
  18. 37. Igneous rock, large crystal, different colours
  19. 38. have regular shapes and sharp edges
  20. 39. happens to rocks in the mantle
Down
  1. 1. a load of transported rock and sediment settling to the bottom
  2. 4. thickest layer of the earth
  3. 5. sedimentary rock, causes a fizzing reaction with lemon juice
  4. 6. happens to rocks when the solidify
  5. 8. Sedimentary rock, red,
  6. 10. Erupted, cooled quickly on the surface
  7. 11. semi-molten rock above the earths surface
  8. 13. plate underneath the ocean
  9. 14. Igneous rock, dark black
  10. 18. a solid mass of minerals
  11. 20. Stayed deep underground, cooled slowly
  12. 21. the main transporter of weathered rock
  13. 23. metamorphic rock, white with crystals
  14. 25. Core, made of liquid nickel and iron
  15. 27. metamorphic rock, black, found in layers
  16. 28. falls from clouds
  17. 30. rock typed formed from cooled semi-molten
  18. 31. The weight of the sediments on top squashes the sediments at the bottom
  19. 32. plate, large, moving sections of the earths crust
  20. 35. a sudden shockwave caused by rocks being under stress from the movements of plates at plate boundaries
