  6. 14. This refers to the layers of arrangements of minerals.
  7. 17. It is the region of the upper mantle where plate tectonic activity happens.
  8. 19. In this layer of the Earth is cooler and brittle and can generate earthquakes that consists of peridotite and dunite.
  9. 20. This is an igneous rock that is rich in silica and have large crystals.
  10. 23. This part of the Earth includes the crust and upper mantle.
  11. 24. This is an igneous rock that cools down quickly from lava form.

  13. 27. This makes up more than half of the Earth's crust.
  14. 29. This mineral is also known as rock salt.
  15. 30. This type of rock is usually formed deep within the Earth; they change due to great temperature and pressure.
Down
  1. 1. Magma cools fast and forms into extrusive or volcanic rock in this process of the rock cycle.
  2. 3. The least hardest mineral on Earth.
  3. 4. It is the breaking down of rock in the lithosphere where in this process there is no removal of rock material.
  4. 6. It is the most common sedimentary rock and is hardened clay.
  5. 8. This type of rock is formed through the solidification of a mass of molten rock like when lava flows then cools down and hardens.
  6. 9. An example of a sedimentary rock that is made up of pebbles or pieces of gravel cemented together.
  7. 12. A process in the rock cycle where magma cools slowly underground of the earth to form Igneous rocks.

  9. 15. The largest layer of the Earth.
  10. 16. The laying down of sediments carried by moving agents process in the rock cycle.
  11. 18. This type of rock are built up of particles laid down as layers that is later on buried, compressed and cemented.
  12. 21. The solid part of the core.
