latitude and longitude
Latitude is the _______________ (horizontal/ vertical) imaginary lines on the Earth
Horizontal
"Geo" means __________
Earth
Where the edges of two tectonic plates meet
boundary
These types of resources are unlimited
renewable
"hydro" means __________
water
The line at 0 degrees latitude
equator
The very top layer of the earth; the one we are standing on
crust
This type of boundary is where two plates collide into each other
convergent
These type of resources are being used by humans faster than the Earth can produce them; limited; finite
nonrenewable
This step in the water cycle involves turning water from a liquid to a gas
evaporation
The line at 0 degrees longitude
prime meridian
This layer of the earth is a liquid
outer core
This type of boundary is where two plates move away from each other
divergent
Give an example of a renewable resource
water, sun, wind, geothermal, etc
This step of the water cycle corresponds to the formation of clouds
condensation
Lines of latitude range from ___ degrees to ___ degrees
0 to 90
As we go deeper into the earth, pressure (inc/dec/stay the same)
increases
This type of boundary is where two plates slide past each other (parallel)
transform
Give an example of a nonrenewable resource
coal, oil, natural gas (fossil fuels), metals, precious stones
List one negative impact of acid rain
damage to plants, less minerals in the soil, corrosion of buildings/ structures
A city on a map is 45 degrees to the right of the prime meridian and 30 degrees below the equator. How would you write the city's coordinates?
30 degrees S, 45 degrees E
This layer of the earth is "fluid", which causes the movement of plate tectonics
mantle
Earthquakes happen at these type of tectonic boundaries
True or false: The earth is always making more coal
Name on way to speed up evaporation
hot, windy, spread out water (puddle vs cup!)
