7. - a wave of energy released during an earthquake that helps geologists map the interior of the earth
8. - a form of evidence about the interior of the planet that comes from measuring seismic waves after an earthquake
9. - lighter in color and less dense portion of the crust, found beneath your feet on dry land
11. - the outermost, and least dense material on Earth
12. - part of the core that is as hot as the surface of the sun but it is a solid because there is no room for the metals to melt into a liquid
13. - part of the core that is a liquid (molten) generates our magnetic field
14. - the ability to do work
15. - darker and denser portion of the crust, found under the oceans
16. - a group of parts that work together as a whole

1. - contains all of the earth's water (liquid, snow, ice, gas, etc.)

3. - part of the earth that contains all of our rocks, mountains, gems, metals, etc.
4. - a change in one sphere or part of a system may cause changes in other parts
5. - a force that breaks the land back down
6. - part of the earth that includes all of the life on the planet
10. - part of the earth that contains all of our air and where the weather happens
