Across
- 3. A previous mega continent on Earth, 65 million years ago.
- 4. The sphere that holds all magma.
- 6. the heat producer that causes the convection currents.
- 10. When two tectonic plates converge, they create a tall rocky protrusion from the ground.
- 12. When two plates go towards each other, causing one plate to slide under.
- 17. A building strategy that reinforces a buildings most exposed/weak points to make it more earthquake resistant.
- 19. The scale that measures how severe an earthquake is?
- 22. The most prominent area with earthquakes.
- 23. The material that the oceanic crust is made out of.
- 26. When heat rotates by heating up and cooling down to move tectonic plates.
- 27. This thing can collide in three ways, converging, diverging or transforming.
- 32. The tectonic plate Australia rests on.
- 33. A word that is similar to energy, something that is pure and can move tectonic plates from the convection currents.
Down
- 1. A massive continent that Eurasia was once called.
- 2. Two plates shifting in the oceanic crust, causing tons of force to lift rebound the water into a massive wave.
- 5. The shift of continents that causes drift and changes the continents position.
- 7. This tectonic plate is home to a continent, dominantly made of ice, the tectonic plate is of the same name.
- 8. The crust that holds a lot of the land content of a tectonic plate region.
- 9. tectonic plates can either do one of these two things, this one is destroying something.
- 11. The crust that is under the ocean, this crust can be pushed up to create underwater volcanoes.
- 13. One of two mega contents that was present 135 million years ago.
- 14. The hottest part of the Earth that supports the outer core.
- 15. When two plates either transform, diverge or converge, creating a violent shake.
- 16. An eruption of molten magma, this protrusion may form after two tectonic plates converge.
- 18. Molton rock that when heated can move tectonic plates.
- 20. The part that drifts under the mantle.
- 21. One of two mega contents that was present 135 million years ago.
- 24. Tectonic plates can either do one of these two things, this one is creating something.
- 25. The part of the geosphere that moves the tectonic plates.
- 28. A clump of all contents in the Palaeozoic Era, around 220 million years ago.
- 29. The top part of the geosphere that is moved by the tectonic plates.
- 30. When two plates slide against each other.
- 31. Two tectonic plates go away from each other.
