- 12. A hole in the earth's surface where lava can come out.
- 13. A place where heated water rises to the surface of the earth as a liquid.
- 15. Formed on top of the earth's crust.
- 16. Thick layers of igneous rock that cover many places including the ocean floor.
- 17. Anything having to do with molten earth materials.

Down
- 1. The scale used to estimate the explosive power in a volcano.
- 2. Energy created from magma inside or outside of the earth's surface.
- 3. Currently erupting or has been observed erupting in history.
- 4. Solidified lava that explodes from a volcano.
- 5. Large amount of magma collected and cooled in one space.
- 7. Quiet eruptions of mostly low viscosity, basaltic lava
- 9. A volcano that shows no signs of seismic or volcanic activity.
- 10. Eruptions that eject both lava and pyroclastic materials.
- 14. A place where hot or boiling water is forcefully ejected from the ground at regular intervals.
- 18. Magma above the surface of the earth.
- 19. Eruptions of bursts of gases that eject mostly pyroclastic materials.
