Across
  1. 6. Land feature created when two continental plates converge.
  2. 9. A series of volcanos that surround Pacific Ocean, accounts for 75% of all volcanos on Earth.
  3. 13. Name of crusts that are under the ocean.
  4. 17. Melted rocks, found in the mantle.
  5. 18. Layer of Earth that produces Earth's magnetic field.
  6. 21. Another word for an ocean mountain created by two oceanic plate divergence.
  7. 22. A thin semi-liquid layer under the Earth's crust that allows crust to move around.
  8. 24. The thickest layer of Earth..
  9. 26. The solid layer of Earth.
  10. 27. System of Earth that accounts for all water, in all forms of state.
Down
  1. 1. Plate interaction when two plates slide past each other, also called Transform.
  2. 2. Anywhere on Earth where living things exist.
  3. 3. When one plate pushes down underneath the other plate in convergent boundaries.
  4. 4. Gaps on land created by divergence of two continental plates.
  5. 5. A deep hole in the ocean created by convergence of oceanic and continental crusts.
  6. 7. Area where magma erupts to the surface of Earth.
  7. 8. An area where two plates meet.
  8. 10. Shaking of Earth's crust due to plate interaction or movement.
  9. 11. The place at which two boundaries slide past each other.
  10. 12. Movement of liquid or gas due to heat. This drives tectonic plate movement.
  11. 14. Plate interaction when two plates move closer to each other.
  12. 15. System of Earth that accounts for all the rocks.
  13. 16. Name of crusts that are on land.
  14. 19. Produces high heat in the outer core.
  15. 20. Name for Earth's crust that is broken in to big pieces that fit like a puzzle.
  16. 23. Plate interaction when two plates move away from each other.
  17. 25. System of Earth that that accounts for all gases.
  18. 26. Name of rocks that are created from magma cooling. This also stores magnetic information.
