Tectonics - Jessica
Across
- 4. a release of energy from the focus of an earthquake that can cause ripples
- 6. longitudinal waves that travel through the earth
- 8. plates moving together
- 12. is the result of plates or sections being pulled in the opposite directions
- 13. wide and flat, with sloping sides, multiple layers and low viscosity
Down
- 1. plates moving past each other
- 2. round crater. made in layers of cinder and ash. very high viscosity
- 3. plates moving apart with new crust being formed
- 5. tranverse waves that travel through the Earth
- 7. plates under the Earth's surface
- 9. compression of the rock forces one side of the fault to move up and over the other side
- 10. high viscosity, steep sides and round top
- 11. two tectonic plates or sections moving horizontally past each other
