Across
  1. 2. A plate boundary where two plates move away from each other
  2. 5. The process by which oceanic crust sinks beneath a deep-ocean trench and back into the mantle at a convergent plate boundary
  3. 7. A plate boundary where two plates move past each other in opposite directions.
  4. 10. The hypothesis that the continents slowly move across Earth's surface
  5. 12. The point on Earth's surface directly above an earthquake's focus
Down
  1. 1. A plate boundary where two plates move towards each other.
  2. 3. The movement of a fluid, caused by differences in temperature, that transfers heat from one part of the fluid to another
  3. 4. Stress that stretches rock so that it becomes thinner in the middle
  4. 6. Stress that pushes masses of rock in opposite directions, in a sidewasy motion
  5. 8. The shaking that results from the movement of rock beneath Earth's surface.
  6. 9. Stress that squeezed rock until it folds or breaks
  7. 11. The point beneath Earth's surface where rock first breaks nder stress and causes an earthquacke
  8. 13. tectonics The theory that pieces of Earth's lithosphere are in constant motion, driven by convection currents in the mantle
