Across
  1. 3. where convection currents take place
  2. 6. solid metal core
  3. 8. low silica low viscosity lava
  4. 9. compressional wave, faster, moves through solids and liquids
  5. 11. plates slide across each other
  6. 13. sinking of one plate under another due to density
  7. 14. low silica low viscosity
  8. 16. vent that allows magma to flow from the inside of the earth
  9. 17. pushing of plates away from each other
  10. 18. where earthquakes happen on the surface
  11. 19. where earthquake originates deep underground
  12. 21. waves used as evidence for the earth's interior
  13. 23. liquid metal responsible for magnetic field
Down
  1. 1. movement due to density that moves tectonic plates
  2. 2. theory that states plates move slowly over time due to convection currents
  3. 4. plates moving away from each other
  4. 5. broken into tectonic plates
  5. 7. strength of earthquakes
  6. 10. release of sound wave energy due to tension/pressure build up due to movement
  7. 12. plates moving towards each other
  8. 14. transverse waves, slower, moves through liquid only
  9. 15. high viscosity high silica lava
  10. 20. area where the most active plates are
  11. 22. pull of lithosphere during subduction
