3
What is happening on the left side of the picture at the end of the black line?
The moving water is eroding the land.
The moving water is depositing new sediments.
The moving sediments are speeding up to go around the curve.
The moving water is stopping at that point.
4
Identify the landform that is represent at point X.
a valley, because the closest contour line is 500
a hill/mountain because the contour values increase as they get closer to X
a trench because the contour line numbers increase as they move toward X
flat land because the contour lines are ovals
5
Wavelength is defined as ____.
the ditance from trough to crest
the number of waves in a given amount of time
the distance from the line of rest to the top of the wave
the distance from crest to crest
6

at the poles
at the equator
Along the edge of the Pacific Ocean in the Ring of Fire

7
In which situation would more erosion take place?
On flat land when there is a brief rain
On a hillside when there is consistent periods of heavy rain
On flat land when there is heavy rain
On a hillside during a period of drought
8
Which of the following best explains the processes taking place in this rock diagram?
The frozen rain melts and washes the inside of the rock to make it cleaner.
The rain seeps into the cracks & freezes to hold the rock together.
The rain seeps into the cracks, freezes, expands and weathers the rock.
The rain is cleaning the rock inside and out. Then the cold keeps it shiny.

11
Sand dunes are formed by
ice, when it melts and sediments are deposited into new places
snow, when it melts and drops sediments in a new place
wind, when it picks up sediments, slows, and drops sediments in a new place
water, when it slows down and drops sediments in a new place
12
Weathering, erosion, and deposition
occur in the asthenosphere.
are not an important geological process.
