contains all of Earth's water
Hydrosphere
the liquid part of the core
outer core
carries away particles

caused from the deposition of glaciers
Moraine
flow of hot, less dense materials rising and cooler, more dense materials sinking
Convection Current
contains all of Earth's rock and metals
Geosphere
the outer most layer of Earth
Crust
is responsible for breaking down rock
Weathering
Two types of glaciers
Continental and Valley
The transfer of heat by movement of fluids
convection
parts that are all working together
system
created by Earthquakes
Seismic waves
Why does warm air rise
les dense
the way a glacier picks up rock and sediment as it moves
Plucking
transfer of heat by touch
conduction
forces that tear down
destructive
rock found under continental crust
Granite
Heat rising from the core and mantle cause _____
Convection currents
a lake created by a chunk of glacier falling off
Kettle Lake
transfer of heat by absorbing sunlight
radiation
tells you how we are doing
feedback
the weight of the rocks pushing down creates this force
Pressure
