Across
- 4. chain of islands formed at edges of colliding tectonic plates where one plate subducts
- 7. molten rock below the surface of Earth
- 8. an instrument detecting the seismic waves from an earthquake
- 11. when one tectonic plate sinks below another plate during a collision
- 13. separating of continents by drifting across Earth's surface
- 15. type of plate boundary where plates are colliding with each other
- 16. place with extremely hot material comes out of Earth's surface
- 17. point on Earth's surface directly above focus of an earthquake
Down
- 1. molten rock erupted on Earth's surface
- 2. rapid movement of ground due to movement of tectonic plates
- 3. deep channel where crust is sinking downwards
- 5. below ground where an earthquake starts
- 6. layer of plastic semi solid rock in the lower mantle
- 9. type of plate boundary where plates are sliding parallel to each other but in opposite directions
- 10. process of continents breaking up, subsiding and allowing in water from the sea
- 12. type of plate boundary where plates are moving apart in opposite directions from each other
- 14. huge wave in the ocean caused by an earthquake on seafloor
