Wind-blown sand carving away at big rocks

A river bringing rocks downhill

Ocean waves pushing rocks up on the shore

Sand dunes are landforms that may be observed at the base of a mountain range. The formation of these sand dunes is most likely the result of

weathering of sand by ocean waves

This U shaped valley was likely formed by

slow-moving mass of ice cutting into the land

powerful wind moving loose sediments around

a powerful river cutting into the land

the river meeting the ocean and depositing sediments

The Grand Canyon was created by the Colorado River over many thousands of years. The river moves swiftly as it flows downhill, breaking off bits of rock which are carried down the river. As the rocks are dragged by the river, they scratch deeper into the land. What is most likely to happen over time?

The canyon will get deeper as it continues to be eroded by the rock.

The river will dry up, and the canyon will stop changing.

Wind will continue to erode the rock

A mountain will form where the rock material is deposited.

What natural process is most responsible for shaping this delta on the Texas coast?

Water erosion moves weathered material and deposition deposits it at the mouth of a river as it meet the ocean.

Wind weathering and erosion blows sediments to create the delta.

Ice weathering and erosion creates a delta caused by a moving glacier.

Cementation and compaction creates these delta landforms.
