Physical Geography

The (a)   is the air around the Earth

Climate is affected by changes in

• Latitude

• Altitude

• Distance from sea

• Air temperature

• Atmospheric Pressure

Changes in the following results in a change in weather

• rainfall/precipitation

• altitude

• latitude

• air temperature

• atmospheric pressure

An area drained by a river is

• waterfall

• river basin

• drainage

• surface water

Process by which material is carried away is called

• weathering

• erosion

• transportation

• deposition

Process by which material is broken down through a static process is called

• erosion

• transportation

• deposition

• weathering

Process by which material is broken down through a dynamic process is called

• erosion

• weathering

• deposition

• transportation

Weathering, erosion, transportation and deposition work together to

• create new landforms

• do nothing

• destroy landforms

• create life

New landforms can be formed through

• volcanic eruption

• movement of sea waves

• wind

• a moving river

Examples of sudden changes in our physical/natural world are

• storms and floods

• earthquakes and volcanoes

• weathering and erosion

• formation of non-renewable resources
