  3. 9. Study of earthquakes
  4. 12. Two forces of plate tectonics that can cause the deformation of rocks
  5. 13. A break in the Earth's crust along which blocks of crust slide relative with one another
  6. 14. Two lithosphere plates colliding forming a boundary
  7. 15. Seismic waves that travel along the Earth's surface
  8. 16. Rock deformation that's like a piece of molded clay and doesn't lead to earthquakes
  9. 19. Waves that travel through solids, liquids, and gases

Down
  1. 1. Seismic waves that travel through the Earth's interior
  2. 2. The boundary between tectonic plates that are sliding past each other horizontally
  3. 3. Giant pieces of Earth's think, outermost layer
  4. 5. The boundary between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other
  5. 6. The sudden return of elastically deformed rock to its original shape
  6. 8. Rock deformation that's like a stretched rubber band and leads to earthquakes
  7. 10. The two types of vertical movement in the Earth's crust
  8. 11. A set of deep cracks that form between two tectonic plates pulling away from each other
