Across
- 2. Large fractures(a break)in the earth's crust.
- 8. Gas part of the earth (oxygen & nitrogen etc).
- 9. the force that could create deformation on rocks in their shape and/ volume.
- 10. the uppermost layer of earth.
- 11. are fold structures formed when the originally rock layers have been folded upward
- 12. are folds structures when the original rock layers have been folded downward
- 13. solid part of the earth(rocks & minerals etc).
- 17. Large ocean waves caused by an earthquake under the ocean.
- 18. is a mixture of molten and semi-molten rock found beneath the surface of the earth.
- 19. occur when the horizontal layers are bent upward so that two limbs of the fold are still horizontal.
- 22. The process in which some of the minerals get dissolved in water.
- 23. ability of a rock material to handle stress depends on the elasticity of the rock.
- 24. fractures in rocks that show little or no movement at all.
- 25. The process in which atmospheric oxygen reacts with the rock to produce oxides.
- 27. This results because of the intense heating of the rock’s outer layers.
- 28. instrument that measures earthquake waves.
- 29. The process by which water is absorbed by the minerals of the rocks.
- 30. refers to the downslope movement of rock and soil under the influence of gravity.
Down
- 1. Collapsed volcanoes
- 2. point under the earth’s surface where an earthquake starts
- 3. The outlet where magma escapes to the surface of the earth.
- 4. is a measure of the shaking created b the earthquake, and this value does vary with location
- 5. Plates moving apart
- 6. A volcano that is no longer erupting but is likely to erupt again in the future.
- 7. Bowl-shaped formation at the top of a volcano.
- 10. Plates come together
- 14. volcanic cone made up of layers of hardened lava.
- 15. Magma that reaches the earth's surface.
- 16. Tectonic plate moves over a magma ”plume”
- 20. place on earth’s surface directly above the focus
- 21. Also called composite volcanoes
- 26. The process by which various types of carbonates are formed.
