Geology Review

Which of the following landforms was formed by deposition?

• Hill
• U-Shaped Valley
• Delta
• Lake

Which of the following is an example of a slow change to Earth's surface?

• A volcano erupting
• An earthquake making cracks in the land
• Tornado traveling through a neighborhood
• A glacier weathering and eroding rocks forming a valley

Using the picture, infer what has caused the change in the shoreline.

• Erosion of sediments by water
• Weathering caused by a glacier
• Rocks breaking down from acid rain
• An erupting volcano

How do glaciers effect the land?

• They carry large boulders that scrape against the surface and wear away the rocks
• They cause the wind to blow harder in these areas
• Glaciers do not effect the land becuase they are just blocks of ice
• They cause the formation of sea caves when they melt

Which landform is mostly formed by wind?

• Valley
• Delta
• Canyon
• Sand Dune

What caused the caves to form underground?

• People dug the tunnels to go down the hill on snowy and rainy days
• Weathering and erosion by groundwater made the caves over many years
• A flash flood rushed through the hillside on its way to the valley
• Animals dug up the tunnels
