How are erosion and deposition alike?
Both build up Earth’s surface quickly
Both wear down Earth’s surface slowly
Both change Earth’s surface over time
Neither changes Earth’s surface
Which one of the following processes causes sinkholes to form?
Erosion of sediment by runoff
Deposition of sediment by a river
Deposition of calcite by groundwater
Erosion of limestone by groundwater

What is the first step in a sinkhole forming?
Raindrops strike the ground
Rain seeps into the ground
Rainwater flows as run off
The limestone dissolves and cracks are enlarged and carry even more acidic water
What is the second step in a sinkhole formation?
Raindrops strike the ground
Rainwater seeps into the ground
Rainwater flows as runoff
The limestone dissolves, cracks are enlarged and carry even more acidic water.
What is the third step in a sinkhole formation?
Raindrops strike the ground
Rainwater flows as runoff
Rainwater seeps into the ground
The limestone dissolves, cracks are enlarged and carry even more acidic water
What is the final step in a sinkhole formation?
Rainwater strikes the ground
Rainwater flows as runoff
Rainwater Seeps into the ground
The limestone dissolves and cracks are enlarged and carry even more acidic water
If you are in a mountain valley studying glaciers. How could you use local landforms to tell whether the glacier was advancing or retracting?
Look at the landform down the valley from the glacier to see if the glacier is retracting
I would see a progression of terminal moraines and other till deposits in the valley
Both answers are correct
It is ice so there is no way of knowing if a glacier moved.
The Mississippi River feeding into the Gulf of Mexico is an example of a birdfoot delta because sediment is left through deposition is left when the river reaches to larger body of water.
True
False it is erosion not deposition
Slump is a type of erosion that causes soil o a hillside to slump toward the bottom of the hill
True
False
