4. The idea of giant plates moving slowly across the Earth’s surface

5. What is plate tectonics?

6. The solid upper mantle and crust combine to form this rigid shell

7. What is the Lithosphere?

8. Physical remains or traces of plant or animal that lived long ago

14. Many earthquakes and volcanoes occur in this zone that borders the Pacific Ocean

15. What is the Ring of Fire?

16. Molten rock that is on the surface

17. What is lava?

18. Name three types of volcanic material that are ejected during an eruption

19. What is lava, dust, ash, rock, gases?

20. This is what causes magma to rise to the surface

21. What is gases and magma building pressure and then forced out?

30. The point on the surface directly above the movement underground

31. What is the epicenter?

32. Mountains that form wherever faulting occurs

33. What are fault-block mountains?

34. Mountain ranges that form because of two plates converging together causing them to fold

35. What are fold mountains?

36. What keeps mountains from growing up and up and up

37. What is weathering and erosion?

38. These types of mountains are formed due to volcanic material bulging up through the Earth’s crust
