- 17. Plates moving away from each other
- 18. Caused by tectonic plates that are moving apart
- 19. Liquified rock that is underground
- 20. the rigid outer part of earth
Down
- 1. A giant supercontinent
- 2. Hardens magma and turns it into igneous rock
- 3. Movement of continents spreading apart from each other
- 6. Plates rubbing against each other
- 8. The formation of new oceanic crust
- 9. the thick part of the Earth's crust that forms large landmasses
- 10. Process that turns any rock into magma
- 13. Narrow depressions on the seafloor at the boundary where one plate slides under another
