Honors Processes of Earth

3. occurs when two plates collide and the denser plate is pulled into the mantle
6. forms when an oceanic plate collides with another plate
7. this happens to rock and turns into magma or lava
9. feature of the ocean floor where new seafloor is created
11. boundary where 2 plates move past each other
12. forms when two continental plates collide
14. type of rock formed when sediment is compacted and cemented
17. rock formed when magma and lava cools and hardens
18. creates sediment
19. a hot plume of mantle pushes up in the center of the plate creating a volcanic island like Hawaii
20. pieces of rock created that have been broken down
22. occurs when large numbers of trees are removed from one area at the same time

1. occurs when the population of an area increases drastically
2. rock that is formed when a rock is exposed to intense pressure and heat without melting
4. drops sediment in a new location
5. boundary where 2 plates collide
8. layer where convection currents occur that move the tectonic plate
10. event that can happen at any boundary but are most common at transform boundaries
13. surface layer of Earth that is made of the crust and upper mantle and is divided into pieces
15. boundary where 2 plates pull apart
16. moves rocks and sediment
21. occurs when plants are lost due to climate change and cutting down trees leading to increased temperatures and little to no rainfall
