  1. 4. layer of earth between crust and core
  2. 5. zone a geological area where one tectonic plate slides beneath another, often leading to earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamifault is a geological area where one tectonic plate slides beneath another at a convergent plate boundary, often resulting in earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis.
  3. 8. drift a solid, hot, and dense sphere primarily composed of iron and nickel, located at the planet's center crated a theory about this
  4. 12. spreading the geological process where tectonic plates move apart along mid-ocean ridges, allowing magma to rise and cool, forming new oceanic crust and pushing older crust away
  5. 13. core a solid, hot, and dense sphere primarily composed of iron and nickel, located at the planet's center
  6. 14. properties describe a material's response to applied forces, encompassing characteristics like strength, ductility, toughness, hardness, and elasticity
  7. 16. The inner most layer of earth
Down
  1. 1. core The layer that is in the middle of core and mantle
  2. 2. Means to make something.Crust the furthest layer from the core
  3. 3. tectonics theory a theory made by Alfred Wegner
  4. 6. plates Things that cause continetal drift
  5. 7. the rigid, rocky outer shell of Earth, encompassing the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle, and is broken into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere below.asthenosphere a semi-solid layer of Earth's upper mantle that lies beneath the lithosphere
  6. 9. boundary where two plates slide past each other horizontally, neither creating nor destroying crust.
  7. 10. the third layer of Earth's atmosphere, located between the stratosphere and the thermosphere,
  8. 11. the squeezing or pushing together of tectonic plates, leading to folding, faulting, and the formation of mountain ranges at convergent plate boundaries.
  9. 15. boundary an area on Earth where two or more lithospheric plates collide
