Across
- 4. rock formed from melting and cooling
- 5. displaces rock layers when furfaces on either side of a crack in the surface's shift
- 6. destructive natural process through which rock and soil are loosened and removed from the Earth's surface
- 7. forms when sediment is carried from a river into another body of water
- 9. when two plates converge, causing the crust to fold over onto itself
- 11. any change to the Earth's crust that results from two tectonic plates converging
- 13. rock formed from the build-up of sediments
- 15. pulled under the other tectonic plate at a convergent plate boundary
- 16. landform from increased pressure upon the rock layers, causing them to fold upward
- 17. plate boundary where two tectonic plates collide
- 18. processes that break down the surface of geologic features
Down
- 1. the feature that forms where a stream or river ends and deposits sediment on land
- 2. the slow, broad, upward movement of the Earth's surface
- 3. circular movement of molten magma that cause tectonic plates to shift
- 5. where sediment is deposited when the stream overflows
- 8. process that helps build, shape, or initiate geologic features
- 10. the slope of a river or stream
- 12. sand, stone, or dirt particles removed from the surface and deposited elsewhere
- 13. results when increased pressure is put on rock layers, causing them to fold downwards
- 14. rock formed from extreme heat and pressure
