weathering
Which type of erosion carries particles into the atmosphere?
What is Wind erosion
A volcano blowing of a top of a mountain?
What is Quick?
What is the difference between weathering and erosion
what is weathering causes a quick change in landforms and erosion causes a slow change in landforms. weathering breaks rocks into sediments and erosion moves sediment from one place to another.
Small pieces that break off of rocks.
What is sediments?
Wind and water can carry sand and small pieces of rock to new locations. True or False
What is True?
What is the process of breaking down and moving particles from one place to another?
What is weathering
An earthquake
what is Quick
what is the difference between erosion and deposition is
What is the difference between erosion and deposition is a. erosion moves sediment from one place to another and deposition is a physical feature on the Earth. a deposition is a process of dropping or depositing, sediment in a new location and erosion is the process of moving sediment from one place to another.
Gigantic formations of ice that do not completely melt over the course of a year.
What is a glacier?
when rainwater seeps into cracks in rocks and __________, it expands and causes the rock to split apart.
What is freezes?
What is an example of chemical weathering?
What is acid
Landslide
what is Quick
Name a difference between weathering and erosion.
What is weathering makes things smaller, and erosion moves it?
A growing pile of deposited sediment at the mouth of a river.
What is a delta?
Weathering over long periods of time breaks rock into ____________ pieces. (larger or smaller)
What is smaller?
Why do some rocks smooth out in a body of water?
What is fast-moving water?
Drought
what is Slow
The difference between a moraine and a dune is.
What is Moraines are leftover from glaciers when they melt and dunes are leftover from rivers when they dry up. Moraines are leftover from glaciers when they melt and dunes are formed when sand is blown away and deposited elsewhere.
Large piles of sediment that are leftover from glaciers when they melt.
What are moraines?
Fast-flowing rivers can pick up and carry rocks (far/short) distances.
What is far?
Weathering describes the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and mineral away
What is weathering changing earth?
Weathering by ice
What is slow
What is the difference between physical and chemical weathering is:
What is Physical weathering just breaks things apart and chemical weathering changes the rocks forever. Physical weathering breaks things apart and chemical weathering burns rocks with chemicals.
A nonliving, solid material that are formed in nature and made of crystals.
What are minerals?
All of the following are forces that change landforms EXCEPT a.wind b.moving water c.glaciers d.physical features
What is physical features?
