Across
- 3. this is formed when the old crust melts in the subduction zone forming a magma chamber, which eventually finds its way to the surface
- 5. The Earth's crust is broken up into plates made up of continental and oceanic rock
- 7. when plates slide past each other they form this kind of boundary
- 11. the magma causes this in the athenosphere
- 13. this is when two oceanic plates come together and one slides down under the other
- 14. these are formed at a subduction zone
- 15. these ride on convection currents
- 17. this age of rocks are found closest to the ridge (hint: oldest or youngest)
- 18. when plates come together they form these
- 19. --------margin is found at the edge of the continent and is made up of the shelf, slope, and rise
- 21. rises up at the mid-ocean ridge causing the seafloor to split
Down
- 1. when plates move away from each other they form this kind of boundary
- 2. this kind of continental margin happens when the edge of the continent is in the middle of the plate
- 4. when plates come together this kind of boundary forms
- 6. this is made up of plates that float on the athenosphere
- 8. this is a fault in California that has a transform boundary
- 9. the chains of mountain ranges found on the bottom of the oceans
- 10. this kind of continental margin occurs when plates meet at the edge of a continent
- 12. This age of rocks are found at the trenches (hint:oldest or youngest)
- 16. an active continental margin causes this kind of activity
- 20. when a continental plate and an oceanic plates collide, this plate goes underneath the other one
