Across
  1. 4. When two tectonic plates move towards each other and collide
  2. 5. made from Transform boundaries
  3. 7. Tectonic plates that are at the bottom of the ocean
  4. 9. happens at a convergent boundary and is when a denser plate is pushed down and beneath a less dense plate
  5. 11. 1st theory describes the history of Earth’s Surface and said the continents were once connected but have since drifted apart
  6. 12. Supercontinent incorporated most all of the landmasses on Earth
  7. 15. solid fragments of weathered rock are eroded (moved) and then dropped into a new place
  8. 17. made Plate Tectonic Theory
  9. 18. When two plates slide past each other and makes Fault lines and usually earthquakes
  10. 19. study of shape of Earth’s surface & it’s physical features
Down
  1. 1. mechanical or chemical processes that break rocks into smaller pieces
  2. 2. Seafloor mountain system formed by divergent Oceanic boundaries
  3. 3. difference (subtract) in elevation between two adjacent contour lines of a topo. map
  4. 6. thicker line marking every 5th contour line of a map
  5. 8. Made Continental Drift Theory
  6. 10. line on a map that connects points with the same elevation
  7. 12. 2nd theory describes the history of the Earth’s surface and said that the lithosphere is divided into plates that are moving on top of the asthenosphere
  8. 13. process by which water, ice, wind, and gravity remove and transport sediments
  9. 14. map showing the shape and elevation of the land surface using contour lines
  10. 16. When two plates move away from each other; continental and oceanic
