Learning about why people migrate helps us understand

settlement locations & patterns

A landform such as a Plateau can be described as

large area of tall land with a mostly flat on top

Deserts are land areas that...

are dry and water evaporates into the air

Human changes to landforms include

digging resources from underground and left open

A volcano is best described as a mountain that...

when erupts allows molten earth "lava" to flow out

new land created in large bodies of water

The equator separates which two hemispheres

Northern & Southern hemispheres

Land reclamation means:

new land is created from large bodies of water

The Theory of Continental Drift includes evidence that:

coastlines appear to fit together in South America & Africa

Understanding natural disasters and what impact they have allows us to:

learn about why people become environmental migrants

Natural changes to landforms include:

deposition, weathering, tectonic force, glaciation & erosion
