Across
  1. 3. continental volcanic arc due to oceanic-continental plate convergence
  2. 4. ocean with many active plate boundaries
  3. 8. abundant features on the Pacific Ocean floor due to lack of sedimentation
  4. 13. sediment derived from diatoms foraminifera and other organismal remains
  5. 14. a superheated water spout found at midocean ridges
  6. 16. finest particle size of sediment that takes the longest to settle
  7. 18. an underwater volcano
  8. 21. area of high earthquake and volcanic activity around the Pacific ocean due to convergent plate boundaries
  9. 22. continental margin with a narrow shelf and steep slope
Down
  1. 1. type of continental margin that does not mark a plate boundary
  2. 2. stripes that form a symmetrical pattern around mid ocean ridges
  3. 5. a linear lowland area between two uplifted areas found at a divergent plate boundary
  4. 6. forms at convergent boundaries
  5. 7. steepest part of a continental margin
  6. 9. deepest flattest parts of the earth
  7. 10. bump of sediment found at the base of a passive continental margin
  8. 11. the Aleutian Islands and the islands of Japan are formed in this convergent boundary
  9. 12. the earths crust
  10. 15. molten lava from the upper mantle that wells up forming new seafloor
  11. 17. sediment derived from weathering
  12. 18. formed by the tests of diatoms and radiolarians specifically
  13. 19. a divergent boundary between two oceanic plates
  14. 20. volcanic island xxx that forms on the less dense of two oceanic plates at a subduction zone
