Across
  1. 3. process where new oceanic crust is formed through convection currents and volcanic activity at a mid-ocean ridge
  2. 6. A volcanically active area far from a plate boundary; these caused the formation of Hawaii
  3. 7. Molten rock on the Earth's surface
  4. 8. Formed by two convergent continental plates
  5. 9. What happens when a denser oceanic plate collides with a less dense continental plate
  6. 10. Also known as "Whole Earth", Alfred Wegener hypothesized that all continents were once connected
Down
  1. 1. The only plate boundary where the two plates slide past each other
  2. 2. Molten rock below the Earth's surface
  3. 4. Youngest fossils will be found on the top, where the oldest fossils will be found on the bottom
  4. 5. Driving force behind plate movement
