Across
- 5. lithosphere broken into sections that move
- 6. when all the continentals were one making a super continent
- 7. 1 continental and oceanic plates colliding

- 20. 2 continental plates colliding
Down
- 1. where the less dense plate slides under the more dense plate
- 2. found below the continent
- 3. plates sliding past each other causing earthquakes
- 4. 2 oceanic plates colliding
- 8. heat rising and cooling causing it to sink and reheat again causing it to rise
- 9. found below the ocean
- 10. caused when 2 plates slide past each other
- 12. sea floor spreading
