100
___________ are broken up parts of earth's crust that move and collide to cause earthquakes.
What are plates
100
What are the three types of volcanoes?
What are shield volcanoes, cinder cone volcanoes, and composite volcanoes.
100
this is something that causes glaciers to move by pressure forcing it down a hill
What is gravity
100
weathering does this to rocks
What is breaks down
100
A huge ocean wave that can be caused from an underwater earthquake.
What is a tsunami!
200
This scale measures an earthquakes intensity by rating it on a scale from 1-10. This is then used to compare earthquakes.
What is a Richter Scale.
200
This is hot melted rocks that are under the ground
What is magma
200
layers of this are packed down and form glaciers
What is snow
200
erosion is the process in which rocks and other small broken down sediments are _____?
carried away
200
the outer most part of the earth
What is the crust
300
This is a tool that measures earthquakes waves size and intensity using a weighted writing utensil and paper.
What is a seismograph.
300
This is the way that magma is transported from underground to out of the volcano.
What is a vent
300
glaciers to this to the land by picking up rocks and sediment and dragging them across the ground to new locations
What is erosion of land
300
The two types of weathering are
What is mechanical and chemical weathering
300
avalanches, mudslides, and landslides can only occur on this type of land
What is sloped land, not flat
400
The place where two plates have tension, collide, or slide past one another causing an earthquake are called
What is a fault
400
Volcanoes are mostly found around this area
What is the Ring of Fire
400
glaciers cause these two types of structures that change the earth
What are U-shaped Valleys and Moraines
400
the process in which air picks up rocks and/or sediment and deposits them elsewhere
What is wind erosion
400
rocks becomes this when it is sandblasted or hit by other rocks during the process of weathering and erosion
What is smooth!
500
What are three things that earthquakes can cause to happen?
What is landslides, mudslides, tsunamis, avalanches, possibly volcanic eruptions
500
This occurs when pressure builds from underground heat, gases and rock shoot out of the cone of the volcano and into the air.
What is an eruption
500
glaciers are this type of process
What is a slow or gradual process
500
the type of change that erosion causes to the land
What is physical change
500
the earth and its form are constantly _________ everyday!
What is changing
