13. Where is the mountain steepest?
Left Side
300
18. Weathering, Erosion, or deposition?
The placement of rocks in a new area.
Deposition
300
23. Name for the upper mantle that is liquid and undergoes convention, thus moves around our continents.
(Hint- as)
Asthenosphere
400
4. Is an oceanic plate or a Continental plate more dense?
An oceanic plate is more dense.
400
9. This occurs when a continental and oceanic plate converge (convergent boundaries.)
(400) bonus points for 2 answers)
Volcanoes and Trenches
400
14. Where is the mountain at its flattest?
Right side
400
19. What does weathering, erosion and deposition to a new area typically do to a mountain?
Breaks it down and makes it less steep.
400
24. A circle on a topographic map represents what?
The peak of the mountain
500
5. Where is crust created? Where is Crust destroyed?
New Crust is created at Mid Ocean Ridges/rift valleys (where divergent plates are).Crust is destroyed when subduction takes place (when an oceanic and continental plate collide.)
500
10. Describe Subduction
The act of the oceanic crust being pushed into the mantle by converging with a continental crust. This destroys the oceanic crust.

15. What is the highest point on this map? (numerical value)
520
500
20. Describe an instance in which weathering, erosion and deposition take place in real life
Ex. A sea cliff is constantly weathered by the waves, where its rock is eroded away and deposited on the sea floor.

25. What number represents Sea level on a topographic map?
