EARTH SCIENCE QUARTER 2
Across
- 4. measurements of ocean depths and the charting of the shape or topography of the ocean floor.
- 6. Earth’s plates move because the ___________ floats on the asthenosphere.
- 7. A type of fold that are chaotic, random and disconnected.
- 8. Are classified by their textures and the implied mechanism of deformation.
- 9. Most likely only forms as the result of seismic slip rates, and can act as a fault rate indicator on inactive faults.
Down
- 1. The ________ oceanic crust should be found at the ridges.
- 2. Type of boundary that occurs when two plates move away.
- 3. A dip-slip fault in which the block above the fault has moved downward relative to the block below.
- 5. is calculated in a direction perpendicular to the fold axis.
- 8. are classified on the basis of several geometric factors like thickness, orientation of axial plane and thickness of folded beds.
