  1. 6. Crust= the relatively thick part of the earth's crust that forms the large landmasses. It is generally older and more complex than the oceanic crust.
  2. 8. the powdery residue left after the burning of a substance.
  3. 10. the upper layer of the earth's mantle, below the lithosphere, in which there is relatively low resistance to plastic flow and convection is thought to occur.
  4. 13. hot molten or semifluid rock erupted from a volcano or fissure, or solid rock resulting from cooling of this.
  5. 14. the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle.
  6. 15. Island= a large volcano that has erupted on the seafloor and has emerged above sea level, occurring in ocean basins or on ocean ridges.
  7. 16. Rock= form when hot, molten rock crystallizes and solidifies.
  8. 17. a destructive mudflow on the slopes of a volcano.
  9. 19. Moutain= A volcano is a vent or opening through which magma, ash, gases, and water vapor are ejected out.

  1. 1. the sideways and downward movement of the edge of a plate of the earth's crust into the mantle beneath another plate.
  2. 2. relating to, consisting of, or denoting fragments of rock erupted by a volcano.
  3. 3. Boundary= The location where two plates meet
  4. 4. a mountain or hill, typically conical, having a crater or vent through which lava, rock fragments, hot vapor, and gas are being or have been erupted from the earth's crust.
  5. 5. a sudden and violent shaking of the ground, sometimes causing great destruction, because of movements within the earth's crust or volcanic action.
  6. 6. When two plates come together, it is known as a convergent bounder
  7. 7. Crust= the relatively thin part of the earth's crust which underlies the ocean basins. It is geologically young compared with the continental crust and consists of basaltic rock overlain by sediments.
  8. 9. hot fluid or semifluid material below or within the earth's crust from which lava and other igneous rock is formed on cooling.
  9. 11. spot=a small area or region with a relatively hot temperature in comparison to its surroundings
  10. 12. Plate= The Pacific plate is an oceanic tectonic plate that lies beneath the Pacific Ocean
  11. 18. of fire= a string of volcanoes and sites of seismic activity, or earthquakes, around the edges of the Pacific Ocean.
