32. Answer 1
Deformation

33. Answer 2
Normal Fault

34. Answer 3
Pushes the rocks in two opposite, horizontal directions

35. Answer 4
An Earthquake

36. Answer 5
Compression

37. Answer 6
The rocks slide past each other in opposite directions with little up and down movement

38. Answer 7
This is where the Pacific Plate and North American Plate meet

39. Answer 8
From normal faults

40. Answer 9

The place on the surface above the focus

46. Answer 15
A downward fold in rocks

47. Answer 16
P-Waves/Primary Waves

48. Answer 17
A large wave of water that is caused by an earthquake

49. Answer 18
S-Waves/Secondary Waves

50. Answer 19
P-Wavs/Primary Waves

51. Answer 20
Magma

52. Answer 21
Along plate boundaries/subduction zones

53. Answer 22
A place not near a plate boundary where volcanoes form because the mantle is hotter in this area and burns through the crust

54. Answer 23
Island Arcs

55. Answer 24
Because it is less dense

56. Answer 25
The volcano will probably erupt soon

57. Answer 26
The volcanoes that form along the edge of the Pacific Plate

58. Answer 27
Active

59. Answer 28
A volcano that forms along a converging plate boundary where subduction is occurring

60. Answer 29
Extinct

61. Answer 30
Because when the plates collide, one is forced under the other, melts back into the mantle, and magma can force its way upwards
