1. is a change in a planet's magnetic field such that the positions of magnetic north and magnetic south are interchanged.
5. measurement instruments used for two general purposes: to measure the magnetization of a magnetic material like a ferromagnet, or to measure the strength and, in some cases, the direction of the magnetic field at a point in space.
6. a process that occurs at mid-ocean ridges, where new oceanic crust is formed through volcanic activity
9. , is an actively deforming region where two (or more) tectonic plates or fragments of the lithosphere move toward one another and collide
10. is the study of the record of the Earth's magnetic field in rocks, sediment, or archeological materials.
13. Ridge push or sliding plate force is a proposed mechanism for plate motion in plate tectonics.
15. is the movement of the Earth's continents relative to each other

2. is a type of fault whose relative motion is predominantly horizontal
3. portion of motion of a tectonic plate that can be accounted for by its subduction.
4. is a linear feature that exists between two tectonic plates that are moving away from each other.
7. Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle,
8. a linear-shaped lowland between several highlands or mountain ranges created by the action of a geologic rift or fault.
11. a line on a diagram or map connecting points relating to the same time or equal times.
12. he process that takes place at convergent boundaries by which one tectonic plate moves under another tectonic plate and sinks into the mantle as the plates converge.
14. a supercontinent
