Distance of Earth from the sun
Tilt of Earth's axis
Changes of sun's energy
11
Convection is the transfer of thermal _________
energy by the movement of matter of different temperatures
energy radiated from radioactive material
12

1
3
4
2
16
Dead Zones are formed when water has
Too many insects
Too many nutrients
A lot of oxygen
Too few nutrients
17
Seasons are caused by Earth's distance from the sun.
False
True
18
Farming negatively impacts land by...
increasing erosion
decreasing erosion
19
Why are polar climates located in the Arctic and northern latitudes?
it has no mountains
The Sun's rays strike the poles indirectly, making it cold.
The poles face the Sun and get more direct solar energy.
It has no prevailing winds.

1
24
Plate tectonics refers to the theory that each surface is made up of_________
plates that cannot move
lithospheric plates that have moved over time.
continents float on oceans like plates
25
geological time periods are divided by
appearance and disappearance of certain life forms.
changes of sun patterns
thickness of rock layers
a
