Project in Science

Across

3. Is a natural science that studies of celestial objects.
6. States that our planets and moons were wandering around in space and were captured by the gravity of our sun, and the moon were captured by the planets.
9. Rocks that form from the magma that rises and cooled in the surface of earth.
11. Proposes that the universe could collapse to the state where it began and then initiate another big bang.
14. Sediments is transported from its place of origin by running water,wind, and glaciers.
19. It is a continental building process.
21. Second planet in the solar system.
26. Study of rocks, their classification and their history.
27. All processes that move, elevate, or build up portions of the earth’s crust came under to it.
29. It is the building blocks of the rocks.
30. Formed as a result of repeated flooding and evaporation.
32. According to it the sun and its planets supposedly condensed out of swirling eddies of cold, dark, interstellar clouds of gas and dust.
34. It is the hottest solid layer of the earth.
37. Rocks that form from the cooling and solidification of magma or lava.
38. The internal and external forces causing stresses and chemical action on earth materials and bringing about changes in the configuration of the surface of the earth.
39. Any rock that subjected to more intense pressure or heat and as a result underwent a complete change.
43. Processes depend on some applied forces.
44. Rocks that form when a magma cools within earth’s crust.
47. This model asserts that the general character of the universe is not changing over time.
48. It is the fourth planet in the solar system.
50. States that the universe began as an incredibly hot, dense point roughly 15 billion years ago.

Down

1. It is the one that protects us from solar winds.
2. Cause by the very hot material at the deepest part of the mantle rising, then cooling, sinking again and then heating, rising and repeating the cycle over and over.
4. Theorizes that our world is said to have collided with small planet, which threw off rocks that formed our moon.
5. It is not solid, it is not liquid but it moves very slowly.
7. Occurs when a rock came in contact with a heat source (usually a magma body).
8. Branch of astronomy involving the scientific study of the large scale properties of the universe as a whole.
10. Rocks that form from the compaction and cementation of sediments.
12. Processes derive their energy from atmosphere determined by the ultimate energy from the sun and also the gradients created by tectonic factors.
13. It is so hot that the metals in it are all in liquid state.
15. Caused by several biological activities like growth or movements of organisms.
16. Composed of clasts on little pieces of broken-up rock which are joined together as a result of compaction and cementation.
17. If it is present to a planet life is possible.
18. Rocks that formed from organic materials.
20. Occurs when a rock undergo increased temperatures and pressures.
22. Breaking down of rocks.
23. Geological processes that occur beneath the surface of the earth.
24. Says that our sun burst one day, and all our planets came from it.
25. The origin of our entire solar system suggests that our planets, moon, and the sun all spun off from a collision between stars.
28. It includes the weathering, mass movements, erosion, and transportation.
31. Movement of molten rock (magma) toward the earth’s surface.
33. Can be due to solution, carbonation, hydration, or oxidation/reduction.
35. It is the third planet in the solar system.
36. Clastic sediments are deposited when the velocity of the tranporting medium drops.
40. It is the center of our solar system.
41. Thickest layer of the earth.
42. It is the galaxy where our solar system is located.
45. Thinnest layer of the earth.
46. It is the planet next to the sun.
49. It is a mountain building process.
