Message definition (AY Honors/Canyoning/Answer Key)

Canyons are also formed by tectonic activity. As tectonic plates beneath the earth’s crust shift and collide, their movement can change the area’s landscape. Sometimes, tectonic activity causes an area of the earth’s crust to rise higher than the surrounding land. This process is called tectonic uplift. Tectonic uplift can create plateaus and mountains. Rivers and glaciers that cut through these elevated areas of land create deep canyons. The Grand Canyon, in the U.S. state of Arizona, is a product of tectonic uplift.
