Plate Tectonics
Across
- 2. major geological events the occur when plates shift suddenly and release stored energy
- 5. occurs when one is denser than another and is forced below as the two plates converge at their boundary
- 7. A vent or fissure in earth's surface through which magma and gases are expelled
- 9. occurs when two plates slide past each other
Down
- 1. the place where two different plates have
- 3. huge pieces of lithosphere that slowly move on the asthenosphere
- 4. occurs when two techonics move away from each other
- 6. the supercontinent that formed 300 million years ago and that began to break up 200 hundred million years ago
- 8. occurs when two tectonics plates move toward each other and collide
