  3. 8. a long, high sea wave caused by an earthquake or other disturbance
  4. 10. rock that is formed near volcanoes
  5. 12. plate boundary where two plates meet
  6. 14. (2words) region where 2 plates move towards each other with the oceanic crust moves below the Continental crust
  7. 15. Plate boundary where two plates move apart

Down
  1. 1. The location where the earthquake begins
  2. 2. the process where rocks are worn away or broken
  3. 3. a line on a rock surface or the ground that traces a geological fault (2words)
  4. 4. Rock that is formed under heat and pressure
  5. 6. a type of mudflow or debris flow composed of a slurry of pyroclastic material, rocky debris, and water. The material flows down from a volcano, typically along a river valley
  6. 9. rock that is formed through depositing and cementing layers of eroded rocks
  7. 11. How is an earthquake measured?
  8. 13. this is when broken rocks and sediments are picked up & moved to another place by ice, water or wind
