ELS 2nd Periodical Pointers-to-Review

This process happens on the Earth’s surface, and it is described as the breaking of rocks either mechanically or chemically.

• Weathering
• Erosion

This process happens on the Earth's surface, and it is described as the movement of particles through the help of transporting agents such as water and wind.

• Deposition
• Erosion

This process happens on the Earth's surface, and it is described as the movement of sediments downward mainly due to the pull of gravity.

• mass wasting

• transport

Where does Mass wasting usually happens?

• Flatland

• Downslope Areas

It is the main reason why mass wasting happens?

• gravity

• wind

• weight

• water

This process happens beneath the Earth’s crust, and it is described as the movement and formation of magma.

• Magmatism

• Plutonism

• Volcanism

• Convection Current

This process happens beneath the Earth’s crust, and it is described as the process by which magma rises to the surface of the Earth as lava.

• Magmatism

• Volcanism

• Plutonism

• Convection Current

This process happens beneath the Earth’s crust, and it is described as the solidification of magma forming an igneous rock.

• Magmatism

• Plutonism

• Volcanism

• Convection current

It is a heat-driven cycles that occur in the mantle. It makes the magma move due to a difference in temperature, often due to a differing proximity to a heat source.

• Magmatism

• Plutonism

• Volcanism

• Convection current

Endogenic processes are processes that occurs or happens beneath the Earth’s crust. Which drives the endogenic processes to occur?

• Earth's internal heat

• gravity

• radiogenic decay

• extraterrestrial impact
