Where do the energy of waves come from?
Wind that blows across the earth's surface.
100

What is the major agent of earths changing surface?

Moving water 

100

Where will more wind erosion happen?

Places with flat land with little vegetation

100

How do glaciers weather and erode?

Abrasion and Plucking 

100

What is the difference between Meanders and Oxbow lakes?

Meanders form from erosion and oxbow lakes are formed by deposition

200
Name one thing that erosion creates in the sea.
Possible Answers: Sea Caves, Wave Cut Cliffs, or Sea Arches.
200

How does moving water weather and erode?

Abrasion and runoff


200
Fill in the blank: Wind causes erosion through _________.
Deflation
200

What landform is formed by glacier erosion?

U-shaped valley

200

What is the difference between a V-shaped valley and a U-Shaped valley?

V-shaped is formed by moving water(river) and U-shaped is formed by glaciers

300
How do waves shape the coast?
By erosion and deposition.
300

Name the 3 things formed by moving water erosion?

V-shaped valley, Meander and Waterfalls

300
Does abrasion by wind cause a lot of erosion?
No, very little.
300

What is formed by glacier deposition?

Moraine

300

What is the major agent of erosion?

Moving Water

What are the 3 landforms created by moving water deposition?

Delta, Oxbow Lake and Floodplain

400

What is deflation?

Loose particles on the surface being blown away by the wind, leaving behind the larger rock particles 

400

What do U-shaped valleys start off as? What is that formed by?

V-shaped valleys formed by moving water (rivers)

400

Where does erosion and deposition happen on a meander?

Inside(slow)=Deposition

Outside(fast)= Erosion

500

What are the 3 landforms formed by wave deposition?

Beaches, Marshes and Barrier Islands 

500

How do waterfalls form?

When softer rock underneath weathers and erodes causing the hard rock above to break off creating a sharp drop off

500

What is created by wind erosion and deposition?

Sand Dunes

True Or False? Glaciers cause erosion by plucking and weathering.
True.
500

What are the 5 factors that influence the amount of runoff and area receives?

Shape of the land, Type of soil, Amount of Precipitation, How we use the land, and Amount of Vegetation
