Across
- 5. ___________ plate boundaries when tectonic plates slide across from each other.
- 6. 10x the moment is how many times the energy?
- 7. Semi-liquid layer of the earth. This layer moves slowly in a similar fashion to heating and cooling water, causing convection currents.
- 8. ________ Scale is used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes.
- 10. Inner part of the earth. Extremely hot and dense, provides heat to cause convection currents in the mantle.
Down
- 1. ______ plate boundaries are when tectonic plates pull apart from each other.
- 2. _______ boundaries are areas where two crust plates come together or spread apart.
- 3. ____________ plate boundaries are when tectonic plates push boundaries together.
- 4. Measurement of the strength of an earthquake. It is a logarithmic scale.
- 9. Top layer of the earth. Moves around due to the convection current in the mantle. Broken into plates.
