2. any solid mass of mineral or mineral-like
matter that occurs naturally as part of our
planet
7. the uppermost mantle, along with the
overlying crust, that behaves as a strong layer
9. forms when sediment is eventually
compacted and cemented
10. molten material that forms deep beneath
earth's surface
11. two plates grind past each other without
harming the lithosphere
15. and thereby produce earthquakes,
volcanoes, mountains, and the crust itself
