Across
- 3. (Plutonic) – below surface (slow) • coarse texture - atoms bond slowly to form crystals • magma solidifies underground
- 4. (Volcanic) – above surface (fast) • fine texture - atoms bond quickly until solidification • volcanic eruptions (lava)
- 7. texture • visible, identifiable crystals) • slow cooling (intrusive)
- 9. All water on the Earth, 71% of Earth’s surface
- 11. All life on earth
- 13. All rocks on Earth
- 15. Layers according to chemical composition: low density rocks 5-70 km thick, 1.4% volume
- 17. rock solid mass of mineral or “mineral-like” matter that occurs naturally on Earth. Categorized by origin.
- 18. Layers according to physical properties: cool, rigid outer shell • ~100 km thick (crust + upper mantle) • brittle behavior, rigid
Down
- 1. Layers according to physical properties: below lithosphere • hot, weak • plastic behavior
- 2. a naturally occurring, inorganic solid with an orderly (repetitive) crystalline structure, and a definite chemical composition. (Test those 5)
- 3. Layers according to physical properties: solid
- 5. Form from the solidification of magma
- 6. Layers according to chemical composition: high density rock • 3430 km radius • 16% volume
- 8. Layers according to physical properties: (lower mantle) - rigid
- 10. texture • microscopic crystals • fast cooling (extrusive)
- 12. Layers according to physical properties: liquid, always moving
- 14. Gaseous “blanket,” controls weather/climate. The layers of gasses primarily Nitrogen surrounding Earth held together by gravity
- 16. Layers according to chemical composition: medium density rock • 2900 km thick • 82.5% volume
