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