______________.
____4. When the magma reaches the surface, it is called ___________.
____5. This zone goes through New Zealand, the Philippines, Japan, Alaska and along the western coasts of North and
South America.
____6. Vibration of Earth due to rapid release of energy.
____7. It is a break in ground along which movement has taken place
____8. It is a depression or deep canal in the seafloor produced by subduction process
____9. The force that squeezes rock together.
____10. The force that pulls rocks apart.
____11. The force that causes rocks on either side of a fault to slide past each other.
____12. The _______________which were formed by the convergence (compression) of Indo-Australian Plate and the
Eurasian Plate has many reverse and thrust faults.
____13. The _______________________ extends 960 km from Mexico to the north of California.
____14. Earthquakes which occur on the ocean floor produce giant sea waves called __________.
____15. Group of mountains produced through the convergence of two continental plates
____16. It is formed when two tectonic plates move apart from each other creating tension
____17. Formed by the divergence between oceanic plates while continental rift valley is formed between continental plates.
