Tectonic Plates

1. a location where a Divergent Plate Boundary is spreading apart
3. A tectonic plate found beneath the continents
4. This meets the Eurasian Plate at the Divergent Plate Boundary in Iceland
7. african and Eurasian plates come together in a Convergent Plate Boundary here
10. a layer in Earth's mantle between the lithosphere (above) and the upper mantle (below)
11. the process of one tectonic plate melting or going beneath another
13. When two plates tear apart from each other
17. an area of rock that has been bent by stress.
18. where all of the stress and energy of an earthquake is stored
19. The area between two plates that creates pressure and stress that will cause earthquakes

2. the outer, solid portion of the Earth. Also called the geosphere. Right above the Asthenosphere.
3. When two plates come together and creates a Subduction
5. An example of Uplift
6. A series of mountains and volcanoes mostly underwater
8. A map that shows the Mid-Ocean Ridge and other volcanoes
9. a split between two bodies (for example, two plates) that once were joined
12. when two plates crash in to each other and create mountains
14. This meets the North-American Plate at the Divergent Plate Boundary in Iceland
15. when stress builds up and plates give way
16. Movement When two plates collide sideways
