pressure AND temperature increase as you go deeper into the earth's crust.
pressure: because more and more weight is being forced downward.
temperature: because the middle of the earth is magma, therefore the closer you get to it, the hotter it's going to feel.

Where is the pressure greater . in 10 m below the surface of the sea or 20 m below the surface of the sea?
The greater the depth the greater the pressure.
The geothermal is about 25C for every 1km of depth below Earths surface?
gradient
Where is pressure greater 10 m below the surface of sea or 20 m below?
because pressure is high at top not at bottom
Why is atmospheric pressure less at the top of the highest mountain than at the foot of the same mountain?
For the same reason that water pressure is less three feet below the surface than it is 30 feet below the surface. On the ground (on earth) we are at "the bottom of the pool" - the air is heaviest there.
What affects water pressure?
For any body of water near sea level, the pressure increases by 1 ATM per 33 feet below the surface.
Does pressure and temperature increase or decrease with depth below earths surface?
it increases
When the pressure of rock layers pressing on an aquifer from above and below squeeze earths surface?

What forces below earth surface shape landforms?
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
What depth below earths surface do you have to go before the pressure and temperature cause rocks to melt?
At depths of 50 to 200 km below Earth's surface rocks will melt.

What is true about plutons?
they form above earths surface (THIS ANSWER IS NOT CORRECT) They Form BELOW earths surface(:
What is the average psi on the earths crust?
Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 14.7 PSI. So, then what is the pressure at about 5,645 feet below the surface of the earth?
Where would you find igneous rocks with larger crystal at the surface or below the surface?
Below the earths surface.
