Plate Tectonics
Across
- 3. A type of subduction zone; a smaller plate slides under a bigger one
- 4. Where less dense plates slide over more dense plates
- 6. Type of boundary between plates that are sliding past each other
- 7. Occur at subduction zones
- 10. More dense type of plate
- 12. These are the reasons why the plates move
- 13. Layer that plates float on
- 15. To our east, caused by rifting
Down
- 1. Caused by rifting
- 2. Type of boundary between plates that are colliding
- 5. Type of plate boundary where plates are pulling apart
- 8. The crust and part of the upper mantle
- 9. Form when two plates collide, pushing each other up
- 11. Less dense type of plate
- 14. Plates pulling apart from each other
