What is this picture showing?

• Weathering: Breaking down of sediment or rock.

• Erosion: Moving of sediment or rock.

• Compaction: The layering of sediment compressed together.

• Delta: Mix of water and land all throughout the landform.

It is important to conserve fossil fuels because it helps the fuel we currently have last a long time.

• True

• False

Guess that Landform:

A river is flowing to the landform. There is a mix of water and land throughout the landform. It formed where the river meets the ocean. The area is flat.

• Sand Dune

• Delta

• U Shaped Valley

• Volcano

How is a V-Shaped Valley formed?

• When ice from a glacier slowly melts over time

• When the wind blows large amounts of soil toward the shore

• When an earthquake breaks large rocks into small particles

• When a fast-moving river carves steep sides into hills and mountains.
