Across
- 1. a sudden and violent shaking of the ground, sometimes causing great destruction, as a result of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.
- 3. is a fast-moving current of hot gas and volcanic matter
- 7. makes Lava
- 10. coming closer together, especially in characteristics or ideas.
- 13. a mountain or hill, typically conical, having a crater or vent through which lava, rock fragments, hot vapor, and gas are being or have been erupted from the earth's crust.
- 15. the solid, outer part of the Earth
- 18. the outermost layer of Earth's lithosphere that makes up the planet's continents and continental shelves
- 19. the outermost layer of Earth's lithosphere that is found under the oceans and formed at spreading centres on oceanic ridges, which occur at divergent plate boundaries.
- 20. an island of volcanic origin
Down
- 2. the upper layer of the earth's mantle, below the lithosphere, in which there is relatively low resistance to plastic flow and convection is thought to occur.
- 4. path along the Pacific Ocean characterized by active volcanoes and frequent earthquakes.
- 5. an oceanic tectonic plate that lies beneath the Pacific Ocean.
- 6. a small area or region with a relatively hot temperature in comparison to its surroundings.
- 8. formed from the cooling and solidification of molten (melted) rock.
- 9. starts out as a simple crack in the Earth called a volcanic vent.
- 11. molten or partially molten rock (magma)
- 12. The location where two plates meet
- 14. mixtures of water, volcanic ash, tephra, rock fragments, and chunks of ice that can flow like wet concrete.
- 16. the sideways and downward movement of the edge of a plate of the earth's crust into the mantle beneath another plate.
- 17. the powdery residue left after the burning of a substance.
