Across
- 4. Evidence that Earth's interior contains liquid and solid layers
- 5. The force responsible for pulling all matter together
- 7. 4.6 billion years ago, a cloud of gas and dust began to pull together and rotate
- 9. A source of heat within the Earth
- 11. Seismic waves travel ______ through rigid, dense rock
- 12. These waves move rock side-to-side and can only travel through solids
- 15. This layer is a liquid due to very high temperatures
- 16. The outermost physical property layer. This layer is in a solid state
- 18. A semi-solid physical property layer of the mantle below the lithosphere
Down
- 1. The force of gravity pulled more dense materials towards Earth's core and less dense materials towards the crust
- 2. These waves squeeze rock in the same direction the wave is traveling. They can travel through solids, liquids, and gases
- 3. A solid physical property layer beneath the asthenosphere
- 6. This layer is under immense pressure and is a solid
- 8. Scientists collect and record seismic-wave data with these devices
- 10. The outermost compositional layer of the Earth
- 13. Waves of energy that travel through rock due to earthquakes
- 14. The compositional layer beneath the crust
- 17. The compositional layer that makes up the center of the Earth
