Across
- 2. A sedimentary basin formed from the sediment eroded from the volcanic arc and transported up to the sea can be impounded or trapped by the rising subduction complex.
- 8. A fold arching downward
- 10. A fracture across which the rock does not slip on both sides
- 12. when two continental plates collide, typically at convergent plate boundaries.
- 16. A fold arching upward
Down
- 1. formed as sediment and rocks are added into the overriding plate
- 3. Horizontal forces fracture the rock
- 4. Special type of reverse fault that is basically horizontal
- 5. The process of mountain building; includes all the processes associated with divergent, transform, and convergent plates.
- 6. a super conitnet formed 200 million years ago
- 7. An imaginary line that goes through all the highest points on the fold
- 9. A process in which a region were two continents collide, one continent may be forced beneath the other.
- 11. Distance that rocks on the opposite side of the fault have moved.
- 13. volcanic mountain chain that forms where two plates carrying oceanic crust converge.
- 14. formed by subduction of oceanic lithosphere beneath continental lithosphere.
- 15. A wedge or keystone-shaped rock that has dropped downward between pairs of normal fault. (german word for ditch/valley)
