100
A glacier that covers a great deal of land.
What is a Continental Glacier?
100
Wind causes _______ through _________.
1. erosion 2. deflation
100
wave erosion creates- 1. ___ _____ 2. ____ ___ ______ 3. ___ ______
1. Sea caves 2. Wave cut cliffs 3. sea arches
100
Rapid downhill mix of water, rock, and soil. (Hint; often occur in heavy rains.)
What is a mudflow?
100
runoff creates rills, rills become gullies, gullies become streams, and streams become _____.
rivers
200
They form in between mountains, and travel downhill like a frozen river.
What is a valley glacier?
200
When wind removes surface particles.
What is deflation?
200
Waves are created when ____ blows across the water's surface.
Wind
200
Most destructive force of mass movement, with large boulders and small rocks in it. (Hint: Common where hills have been cut into for roads.)
What is a landslide?
200
As gravity pulls water ________, the water's potential energy becomes kinetic. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ deposition creates _________ by dropping off sediment.
downhill ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ landforms
300
Glaciers can cause ______ by ________ and ________. As the glacier moves, it breaks off rock and carries it.
1. erosion 2. plucking 3. abrasion
300
Wind is the _______ agent of _______.
1. weakest 2. erosion
300
Waves shape the coast through _______ and __________.
1. erosion 2. deposition
300
True or false?- slump slowly travels down a large slope.
false.
300
gravity is a force that causes ____ _________. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ moving water is the major agent of the ______ that has shaped Earth's land surface.
mass movement ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ erosion
400
Glaciers move when the massive amount of weight melts the bottom of the glacier, causing the glacier to _____ or _____.
1. slide 2. surge
400
Wind causes the most ______ in areas with little _____ ______.
1. damage 2. plant 3. growth (Plant and growth go together but are seperate answers, so it actually is said as "Plant Growth")
400
Waves are the major force of erosion along coasts because of ______ and _______.
1. impact 2. abrasion
400
True or false? Creep is a fast downhill movement of rock and soil.
False.
400
The power of a river's ability to cause erosion and carry sediment depends on- _____, volume of flow, stream bed _____. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Most ________ washes or falls into a river because of mass movement.
1. slope 2. shape ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ sediment
