Across
  1. 3. A type of subduction zone; a smaller plate slides under a bigger one
  2. 4. Where less dense plates slide over more dense plates
  3. 6. Type of boundary between plates that are sliding past each other
  4. 7. Occur at subduction zones
  5. 10. More dense type of plate
  6. 12. These are the reasons why the plates move
  7. 13. Layer that plates float on
  8. 15. To our east, caused by rifting
Down
  1. 1. Caused by rifting
  2. 2. Type of boundary between plates that are colliding
  3. 5. Type of plate boundary where plates are pulling apart
  4. 8. The crust and part of the upper mantle
  5. 9. Form when two plates collide, pushing each other up
  6. 11. Less dense type of plate
  7. 14. Plates pulling apart from each other
