• Endogenic process

• Exogenic process

Multiple Choice

Diagram refers to..

• Mantle convection process

• Earth's crust movement

• Magma activity

• Mantle conduction process

Multiple Choice

It is a vent on the Earth's crust that allows molten and hot magma to flow out through it in a strong eruption.

This process reters to

• Mantle convection process

• Earth's crust movement

• Magma activity

Multiple Choice

What process created this cool rock?

• A volcanic eruption
• A flood
• Wind
• Water

Multiple Choice

What process created this V-shaped valley?

• Erosion due to a river
• Erosion due to a glacier
• Weathering due to a river
• Weathering due to wind

Multiple Choice

Most earthquakes occur near...

• state boundaries
• plate boundaries
• country boundaries
• rivers

Multiple Choice

The process of breaking up Earth's surface into sediment is called...

• sediment
• erosion
• weathering
• deposition 

Multiple Choice

What is the process of moving sediments from location to another?

• Deposition

• Erosion

• Weathering

• Compaction

Multiple Choice

What is sediment?

• the process of rocks being broken down and carried away
• bits of rock, sand, and silt caused by the weathering of rocks
• the top layer of the soil
• decaying plant or animal material 

Multiple Choice

Which of these is an example of erosion

• Light Shinning onto a mountain
• Rain breaking down rock 
• Wind blowing away sediment
• All of the above

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is not an example of an endogenic process?

• Volcanic Eruption

• Earthquake

• Weathering

Multiple Choice

What is erosion?

• When Earth materials, like rock, sand, and soil are being carried away from their original location
• When Earth materials are broke down into smaller pieces
• When Earth materials, like rock, sand, and soil, are dropped or deposited into a new location
• When the Earth changes quickly and it looks different from before

Multiple Choice

What process does the picture demonstrate?

• a flood
• weathering
• erosion
• deposition

Multiple Choice

Which rapid process occurs when the plates of Earth shift rapidly and the surface of the ground shakes and rolls causing damage to Earth's surface, like cracks, and other openings, and damage to roads and buildings?

• landslide
• earthquake
• flood
• volcanic eruptions

Multiple Choice

Which of the following describes how a volcanic eruption changes Earth?

• It can cause cracks on the surface of Earth and destroy buildings.
• It can make a volcano larger and add new rocks to the Earth's surface
• It can carry away parts of the Earth and drop them to lower locations.
• It can create valleys and canyons by taking away the Earth a little at a time

Multiple Choice

What event can cause most landslides?

• Too much rain soaking the ground of a mountain and making the soil loose.
• Too much shaking of the Earth's water
• Too much lava coming out of a volcano during an eruption
• Too much wind blowing the side of a mountain.

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is in the picture?

• volcanic eruption
• landslide
• weathering of the rocks
• flood

Multiple Choice

What most likely happened to the land in the picture?

• A volcanic eruption has built up the land
• Soil has been deposited on the sides of the river
• People have dug up the ground around the river
• The river has weathered and eroded the earth material away
