Across
  1. 7. This type of rock is made from solidified magma
  2. 10. This plate boundary occurs when two plates are being pushed together
  3. 13. This type of weathering involves metallic elements combining with oxygen in the atmosphere
  4. 14. This type of sedimentary rock is created by dissolved minerals
  5. 15. This process involves the movement of sediment
  6. 16. This type of weathering occurs when lichen or moss grows on the side of a rock
  7. 17. This plate boundary is responsible for mid-ocean ridges
  8. 18. The majority of earthquakes occur at this plate boundary
  9. 21. This type of sedimentary rock is created by sediments being compacted and cemented together
  10. 22. This molten rock is what creates igneous rocks
  11. 23. This type of weathering involves rocks dissolving in water
Down
  1. 1. This type of mechanical weathering is done by water, wind, other rocks, or gravity
  2. 2. This type of rock is made by bits and peices of weathered rock cementing back together
  3. 3. This plate boundary occurs when ocean crust goes below continental crust
  4. 4. This process involves the breaking down of rocks to make sediments
  5. 5. This type of weathering physically breaks down a rock
  6. 6. This type of weathering is the result of a chemcial reaction
  7. 8. This scientist is responsible for the theory of continental drift
  8. 9. This is the dropping off of sediment at a new location after erosion
  9. 11. this type of weathering involves the freezing and melting of water
  10. 12. An example of this type of weathering is a tree growing through a rock
  11. 15. This is the area that is affect by an earthquake, right about it's orgin
  12. 19. This is the orgin point of an earthquake
  13. 20. This type of rock is made from extreme pressure and heat
