3 ESO, EXTERNAL GEOLOGICAL PROCESSES

what causes geological agents to move?

• solar energy and gravity

• solar energy

• gravity

• water and wind

• all are false

the agents of external processes are classified in:

• weathering,erosion,transportation and deposition

• water and wind

• atmospheric,hydrospheric and biological

• all are false

• solar energy and gravity

atmospheric agents are....

• rivers,sea,glaciers,groundawater

• wind,rain,snow...

• living organisms

• solar energy

• all are false

hydrospheric agents are....

• wind,rain,snow...

• rivers,sea,glaciers,groundawater

• living organisms

• solar energy

• all are false

biological agents are....

• wind,rain,snow...

• rivers,sea,glaciers,groundawater

• living organisms

• solar energy

• all are false

the agents of external processes are involved in four processes, put them in the correct order

• weathering, erosion,deposition,transportation

• weathering,transportation,erosion,deposition

• weathering,deposition,erosion,transportation

• erosion,weathering,transportation,deposition

• all are false

weathering

• it is the process by which rocks on the Earth´s surface break down through contact with the Earth´s atmosphere,hydrosphere and biosphere

• it is the process of the breakdown and removal of rock debris

• it is the movement of eroded materials or sediments from their place of origin to the place where they were deposited

• it is the process by which the sediments that have been transported to a location begin to deposit and accumulate

• rock fragments transported in running water

erosion

• it is the process by which rocks on the Earth´s surface break down through contact with the Earth´s atmosphere,hydrosphere and biosphere

• it is the process of the breakdown and removal of rock debris

• it is the movement of eroded materials or sediments from their place of origin to the place where they were deposited

• it is the process by which the sediments that have been transported to a location begin to deposit and accumulate

• rock fragments transported in running water

transportation

• it is the process by which rocks on the Earth´s surface break down through contact with the Earth´s atmosphere,hydrosphere and biosphere

• it is the process of the breakdown and removal of rock debris

deposition

• it is the process by which rocks on the Earth´s surface break down through contact with the Earth´s atmosphere,hydrosphere and biosphere
