Plate Tectonic Landforms
Across
- 4. A curved chain of volcanic land
- 5. A series of mountains in the ocean formed by plate tectonics. There is one located in the mid-Atlantic.
- 7. A large wave caused by an earthquake in the ocean
- 8. Areas where a volcano is splitting apart and magma flows beneath
- 10. A sudden violent shaking of the ground from two tectonic plates catching on each other
Down
- 1. A place on Earth where there is a long break in the rock, where earthquakes are more likely to happen. An example is the New Madrid.
- 2. An opening in Earth's crust where lava, gas, and ash can escape. Mt. St. Helen's is an example
- 3. A long and obvious dip on the ocean floor
- 6. A dip in the Earth's surface shaped like a bowl
- 9. A landform that rises above the surrounding land, typically having steep slopes. Everest is an example
