Down
  1. 1. he sudden release of strain energy in the Earth's crust, resulting in waves of shaking that radiate outwards from the earthquake source
  2. 3. a hypothetical landmass in the Northern Hemisphere near the end of the Paleozoic Era
  3. 4. the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of Earth
  4. 5. a continental right-lateral strike-slip transform fault that extends roughly 1,200 kilometers (750 mi) through the U.S. state of California.
  5. 6. The location where two plates meet
  6. 7. a hot or cold mixture of water and rock fragments that flow quickly down the slopes of a volcano.

  9. 10. he sudden release of strain energy in the Earth's crust, resulting in waves of shaking that radiate outwards from the earthquake source
  10. 14. the geological process in which earthen materials are worn away and transported by natural forces such as wind or water
  11. 15. a large continuous mass of land conventionally regarded as a collective region
  12. 16. the continental landmasses were “drifting” across the Earth, sometimes plowing through oceans and into each other
