Across
  1. 4. common in divergent boundaries where rocks undergo tensional stress
  2. 5. common in San Andreas Fault
  3. 8. change in shape or volume of the rock due to stress
  4. 13. plates moving towards each other
  5. 14. stress exceeds the strength of the rock
  6. 18. rock reverts to original size and shape upon removal of stress
  7. 19. formed by brittle deformation
  8. 21. causes deformations on Earth's landmasses
  9. 22. unequal magnitude of stress from different directions
  10. 24. shaped like a basin
  11. 25. shaped like an arch
Down
  1. 1. vertical motion of rocks along the fault line
  2. 2. simple folds involving only slight bends in one side of rock layers
  3. 3. angle of inclination is less than 45 degrees
  4. 6. rocks above the fault plane
  5. 7. plate slides past another plate
  6. 9. squeezes rocks together
  7. 10. plane blocks of rocks along the fracture
  8. 11. common in convergent boundaries where rocks undergo compressional stress
  9. 12. does not have hanging wall and footwall
  10. 15. results to stretching, bending, or folding of the rock without breaking
  11. 16. rocks below the fault plane
  12. 17. plates move away from each other
  13. 19. formed by compressional forces
  14. 20. circular structure dipping uniformly on all sides
  15. 23. body of rock is pulled apart
