Landforms and Oceans/Milligan

Which force formed the valley?

• It was formed by deposition carrying sediment down the river.

• Flowing water and runoff flowed down the hills, causing erosion.

• Earthquakes occurring along a fault formed the valley.

• Lava from ancient volcanoes flowed in the canyon and formed the valley.

Does the data provide evidence to support his claim?

• Yes, because the pollution of fish increased over time.

• No, because the population of fish decreased over time

• No, because the population of fish increased over time.

• Yes, because pollution can damage fish populations.

Analyze the data. What should they do next?

• Since their solution didn’t solve the problem, the need to redo the test.

• Since their solution worked, they need to look for other solutions.

• Since their solution worked, they should discuss the results.

• Since their solution didn’t solve the problem, the need to change the design.

What caused the steep walls in the canyon?

• The lava pushed the water up, constructing a canyon.

• A river weathered and eroded the walls.

• Sediments were deposited in the bottom of an old lake.

• The land was split apart by an earthquake.

What caused the cracks in the rocks?

• Water froze in the cracks causing weathering and resulting in the cracks.

• Acid rain fell on the rock causing weathering and resulting in cracks.

• Heavy snow caused the rock to erode and formed the cracks.

• A river flowed by the rock causing erosion and resulting in the cracks.

The erosion caused by rainfall is a problem. What should you do to test the solution?

• Measure the amount of mud that gets stuck in the layer of gravel on the trail.

• Measure the amount of sediment collected in rain at the bottom of the trail.

• Measure how much rain soaked into the layer of gravel on the trail.

• Measure how much rain fell at different points along the trail by using rain gauges.
