FL.SC.6.E.6.1

Identify the landform that is typically formed by the deposition of sediment at the mouth of a river.

• Mountain

• Delta

• Glacier

• Dune

FL.SC.6.E.6.2

Explain how chemical weathering can change the composition of rocks.

• By breaking rocks into smaller pieces without changing their composition

• By dissolving minerals in rocks, leading to new mineral formation

• By transporting rock fragments to new locations

• By compacting sediments into solid rock

Which landform is most likely to be found in Florida due to its geographical features?

• Mountain

• Glacier

• Dune

• Canyon

FL.SC.6.E.6.2

Describe how erosion and deposition work together to change Earth's surface.

• Erosion breaks down rocks, while deposition builds up new landforms

• Erosion and deposition both break down rocks

• Erosion builds up new landforms, while deposition breaks them down

• Erosion and deposition both build up new landforms

Which of the following is an example of a landform created by glacial activity?

• River

• Mountain

• Lake

• Glacier

How does the process of erosion differ from weathering?

• Erosion involves the movement of rock particles, while weathering involves breaking down rocks

• Erosion involves breaking down rocks, while weathering involves the movement of rock particles

• Erosion and weathering are the same processes

• Erosion involves chemical changes, while weathering involves physical changes

Which landform is created by the accumulation of wind-blown sand?

• Delta

• Dune

• River

• Mountain

FL.SC.6.E.6.2

Analyze how the presence of water can accelerate the process of chemical weathering.

• Water can freeze and expand in cracks, breaking rocks apart

• Water can dissolve minerals in rocks, leading to chemical changes

• Water can transport rock fragments to new locations

• Water can compact sediments into solid rock
