Across
- 3. A mountain or hill with a crater that goes down into the earth and has magma (lava).
- 5. Landform that rises, caused by convergent boundaries.
- 6. Principle of geology scientists use to determine the ages of rock.
- 9. Two plates separating (pulling apart)
- 10. The outermost shell of the planet earth
- 11. A spot with hot magma rising from deep within the earth.
- 13. The mostly solid bulk of Earth's interior. which lies between Earth's dense, super-heated core and its thin outer layer, the crust.
- 14. A sudden violent shaking in the ground caused by plate boundaries shifting and changing.
Down
- 1. Composed of the oceanic lithosphere and the thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. Along convergent plate boundaries, the process of subduction carries the edge of one plate down under the other plate and into the mantle.
- 2. Remains(or bones) of plants or animals in rock.
- 4. A fracture or zone of fractures between two blocks of rock. (in an up-and-down motion)
- 7. Regions that are below sea level.
- 8. The solid, outer part of Earth. The lithosphere includes the brittle upper portion of the mantle and the crust, the outermost layers of Earth's structure
- 10. When two plates come together.
- 12. Two plates sliding past each other. (causes a lot of earthquakes)
