  2. 4. A technique used to navigate locations that cannot be seen (normally used by boats to see what is in the water)
  3. 6. Plates found in the uppermost crust and the mantle that move really slowly allowing them to collide with one another, move away from one another, slide under one another, or even slide right alongside one another
  4. 7. This is the biggest layer, this layer also contains convection currents.
  5. 9. In this layer convection currents allow plates to move.
  6. 10. This layer is a rocky outer layer that contains some tectonic plates.
  7. 12. The thinnest layer of the Earth and it has two different parts the oceanic crust and the continental crust.
  8. 13. Currents within the mantle that transfers heat from the core to the lithosphere and repeats.
  9. 14. This is the only layer of the Earth that is mostly liquid due to the temperatures
Down
  1. 1. This layer is the hottest layer but it is not a liquid due to its immense pressure it contains.
  2. 3. When two plates slide past each other
  3. 5. A time about 300 million years ago when there was only one land mass on the planet Earth.
  4. 6. When two plates slide right past one another
  5. 8. when two plates come together (collide)
  6. 11. A very hot and arid place compared to an average temperature of the rest of the content.
