Across
- 8. form where lithospheric plates are moving away from each other.
- 10. under the sea mountain range that forms where two parts of earths crust are pushing apartr
- 11. outermost layer of earths surface, which is rocky and solid; includes the crust and the rigid part of the upper mantle.
- 12. mountains formed when rocks move along faults, leaving blocks of crust at different elevations.
- 13. the process in which one lithospheric plate slides under another; occurs at converging plate boundaries.
Down
- 1. mountains formed by the bending of rocks.
- 2. rocky material that makes up the continents; its less dense and contains a greater amount of lighter colored minerals than the oceanic crust
- 3. formed where two sections of earths crust are colliding.
- 4. Map that shows the shape and elevation of the land surfacing using contour lines, and shows other land feature using symbols.
- 5. on a map, a line that connects points of equal elevation above level.
- 6. portion of earths crust that lies beneath the oceans; it is thinner than the continental crust.
- 7. above sea level
- 9. a boundary between two lithospheric plates are sliding past eachother.
