The Changing Earth$100
Answer:
These are the physical features on the Earth’s surface. (Examples: mountains and valleys)
What are landforms?
The Changing Earth$200
Answer:
This is the process of breaking rock into smaller pieces.
What is weathering?
The Changing Earth$300
What is sediment?
Answer:
During the process of weathering, rock is broken into smaller pieces called this.
The Changing Earth$400
Answer:
This is the process of moving sediment from one place to another.
What is erosion?
The Changing Earth$500
Answer:
This is the process of dropping sediment in a new location.
What is deposition?
WED?$100
Answer:
Water, wind, ice, and plant roots are all agents of this.
What is weathering?
WED?$200
Answer:
Water, wind, glaciers, and gravity are all agents of this.
What is erosion?
WED?$300
Answer:
Rain washing away soil from a hillside is an example of this. (WED?)
What is erosion?
More Layers $400
Answer:
Waves dropping sand on the beach is an example of this. (WED?)
What is deposition?
More Layers$500
Answer:
Acid rain dissolving the surface of rocks is an example of this. (WED?)
What is weathering?
Erosion$100
Answer:
This is the downhill movement of rock and soil due to gravity.
• What is mass movement?
Erosion$200
Answer:
This is the movement of wet soil downhill due to gravity.
• What are mudslides?
Erosion$300
Answer:
This is the downhill movement of dry soil due to gravity. What are
landslides?
Erosion$400
Answer:
This occurs when soil moves slowly downhill due to gravity.
What is creep?
Erosion$500
Answer:
These can slowly move sediment on the ocean floor to form terminal moraines.
What are glaciers?
More WED?$100
Answer:
Water getting into cracks of rocks, freezing, and breaking the rocks apart is an example of this. (WED?)
What is weathering?
More WED?$200
Answer:
Wind blowing sand from one location to another is an example of this. (WED?)
What is erosion?
More WED?$300
Answer:
Wind blasting sand at rock and carving out arches is an example of this. (WED?)
What is weathering?
More WED?$400
Answer:
Wind dropping sand to form sand dunes is an example of this. (WED?)
What is deposition?
More WED?$500
Answer:
Deltas forming at the mouths of rivers is an example of this. (WED?)
What is deposition?
Miscellaneous$100
Answer:
This type of soil can be blown away easily by a gust of wind. (wet, dry, or covered with grass)
What is the dry soil?
Miscellaneous $200
Answer:
This occurs when people build roads, houses, and parking lots.
What is erosion? (or What is the erosion of soil?)
Miscellaneous $300
Answer:
This results when an ocean breaks pebbles into smaller and smaller pieces.
What is sand or a sandy beach?
Miscellaneous $400
Answer:
This is a landform that is formed at the mouth of a river from the deposition of sediment.
What are deltas?
Miscellaneous $500
Answer:
What type of rock is formed when bits of sediments are cemented together over time?
What is sedimentary rock?

Final Jeopardy!Weathering, Erosion, and Deposition
Make your bid!!
There are four main natural agents (causes) of erosion. Name 3 of them.
You must have 3 of the following:
1. water (rainfall and rivers can carry sediment to other places)
2. wind (wind can pick up and move small rock material)
3. glaciers (glaciers slowly move the sediment on the ocean floor)
4. gravity (gravity can cause mass movement)
