What is deposition?
Deposition is the process by which he really material is dropped.
100
What is an alluvial fan?
A fan shaped deposit that forms on dry land.
100
What can form on the ceilings and floors of a cave?
Stalactites and stalagmites.
100
The rate at which rock erodes depends on what? (This is wave erosion)
It depends on the hardness of the rock and the energy of the waves.
100
What is a beach?
A beach is an area of shore line that is made up of material deposited by waves and currents.
200
What is erosion?
Erosion is the process by which sediment and other materials are moved from one place to another.
200
What is a delta?
A fan shaped pattern where streams deposit their load in.
200
What can form when underground erosion happens?
Caves
200
How does a sea cliff form?
A sea cliff forms when waves erode and undercut rock to make steep slopes.
200
What is a sandbar?
A sandbar is an underwater or exposed ridge of sand, gravel or shell material.
300
How does flowing water change Earth's surface?
By erosion, it can cause streams to widen and deepen. By deposition, it can cause different landforms to form.
300
What landforms can streams create?
Streams can create canyons and valleys by erosion, deltas and alluvial fans by deposition, and floodplains by deposition.
300
What happens when the roof of a cave collapses?
It can form a sink hole.
300
Since sea cliffs seldom erode evenly, what forms as some parts of the sea cliff are cutback faster than other parts?
Headlands
300

Would it take more wave energy to deposit rock or sand? why?

rock because it is heavier 

400
What determines a stream's ability to erode material?
A streams gradient, discharge, and load are the three main factors that control what sentiment a stream can carry.
400
What is a floodplain?
A floodplain is a flat area containing many layers of deposited sediment.
400
What is a shoreline?
It is a place where land and a body of water meet.
400
As the rock making up sea cliffs and headlands erodes, it breaks and cracks. Waves can cut deeply into the cracks and form large holes. As the large holes continue to erode they become what?
Sea Caves
400

 a long, narrow island, usually made of sand, that forms parallel to the shoreline a short distance offshore.

what is a barrier islands?

500
___ is the measure of the change in elevation over a certain distance. Materials carried by a stream are called the stream's ___. The amount of water that a stream carries in a given amount of time is called ___.
Gradient, load, discharge.
500
How do canyons and valleys form?
Landforms, such as canyons and valleys, are created by the flow of water through streams and rivers. As the water moves, it erodes rock and sediment from the streambed. The flowing water can cut through rock forming steep canyons and valleys.
500
What is groundwater?
Water located within the rock's below Earth's surface.
500
What is the order in which coastal landforms are made by wave erosion?
Sea cliffs ---> Headlands ---> Wave-cut platforms ---> Sea caves ---> Sea arches ---> Sea stacks.
500

how far the material has traveled, the type of material, and how it is eroded.

What are the factors that affect the size and shape of materials on beach?
