Weathering
What is weathering
when large rocks break into small rocks
what is erosion
when soil or small rocks move from one place to a different place
What is deposition
when soil gets dropped in a new place
Why does it flood
heavy rainfall and the ground cannot absorb all the water
Name one type of weathering
Physical , biological , chemical
What causes erosion to happen
wind , rain, rivers , oceans or gravity
Name ALL 3 causes of deposition
Gravity. Wind and Water
what is the natural disaster when lava comes out of the ground
volcano
how does plants cause weathering
they grow inside the cracks of the rock and causes it to break
does erosion occur before or after deposition
before
Where does wind deposition mostly happen
the beach / the desert
when the tectonic plates shift and causes crack in the ground
earthquake
how does ice cause weathering
it enters the cracks of the rocks as water and freezes which causes the rock to break
How does wind causes erosion
the wind blows the soil to a new place
How do waves deposit soil
they carry the sand and drop it on the beach
caused by hot and cold wind mixing and causes heavy winds
tornado
when chemicals from rain, dirty air or dirrty rivers causes the rock to change shape or colour
How does gravity cause erosion
gravity pulls down the rocks from mountains
deposition is where the soil is dropped and erosion is when the soil moves
when a big amount of snow rushes down a mountain
avalanche
