What is Erosion?
Erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust and then transports it to another location where it is deposited. Erosion is distinct from weathering which involves no movement.(Can Be Reworded)
What do herbivores primarily eat.
Plants/Herbs

Volcanic Eruption/Volcano
What is the chemical formula for water?
H2O
What is the difference between divergent and convergent boundaries?
Divergent boundaries -- where new crust is generated as the plates pull away from each other. Convergent boundaries -- where crust is destroyed as one plate dives under another. (Can Be Reworded)
The process of igneous rock turning into metamorphic rock.
Heat & Pressure
What are four(4) types of consumers?
