100
Something built by people.
What is a structure?
100
This explains the symbols on a map.

What is more erosion ans deposition?

What is a benchmark?
200
This is where a river empties into a larger body of water.
What is a mouth of a river?
200
This is how maps and models are different.
What is three dimensional and two dimensional?

This is caused from steady rain and when the flow of water goes over the stream channel's bank.
What is a flood?
300
This is where all the earth material goes that was in the canyon.

300
This is how someone can tell which way a river is flowing on a topographic map.
What is looking at the contour lines or benchmarks?
300
A narrow area of high lands between two valleys.

300
This is how maps and models are alike?
What is a representation of something larger?
300
These are changes that people make to rivers or streams.
What are dams or levees?
400
This is carverd out by fast moving water in a stream channel.
What is a canyon?

The difference in elevation between contour lines.
What is the contour interval?
400
A low area between hills and mountains, where a river often flows.
What is a valley?
400
Models can represent something bigger or smaller, but they can also represent this.
What is a process?
400
This is why the Grand Canyon is so deep and wide.
What is slope, flooding, and millions of years of rainfall?
