Plate Tectonics and Rock Cycling

2. The size of something.
7. Under the crust where it is hot and rock begins to melt, move & shift.
9. Plate material containing dense basalt rock that is usually found under the ocean.
13. The reason something has occurred or is occurring.
14. A boundary where two plates are moving away from each other and new crust is forming.
17. A boundary where two plates are moving towards each other.
19. How deep or far down into the Earth an earthquake is occurring.

1. A boundary where two plates are moving past each other.
3. Two things or events happening together or at the same time, but not causing one another.
4. Resources that people are mining or drilling for. They are found in gaps or layers within solid rocks.
5. The movement of the bedrock caused by plates getting stuck on each other then roughly moving past each other.
6. A type of rock formed when layers of sediments are compressed by heavy layers of sediments above.
8. Solid rock found everywhere on earth, often under sediments, such as soil, sand, dirt and broken rocks.
10. The surface of the earth.
11. The section of the crust between earthquake lines.
12. Formed when magma or lava cools.
15. Loose earth materials, such as sand, soil and rocks that are found on the surface of the earth.
16. Plate material containing less dense granite, usually found underground or on continental land.
18. Formed when heat and pressure change the original rock into a completely new rock.
