What is the difference between
constructive and destructive forces?
• Constructive forces build up
landforms, while destructive
forces break down landforms
What does a seismograph measure?
• The intensity of an earthquake
What happens when rocks rub
against each other in running water?
• They become smooth
What happens when a volcano
erupts?
• Magma is forced out an
opening in the Earth’s crust. It
then becomes lava and
hardens.
The center of the Earth is extremely
hot. Why, then, is it solid?
• Because of pressure
What can happen when water
freezes inside the crack of a rock?
• It can break the rock
How can a dam prevent flooding?
• By holding back and regulating
the flow of water
Where does the magma from
volcanoes come from?
• Deep inside the Earth
What forces of nature can erode a
rock?
• Wind, rain, ice
How does pollution speed up the
erosion of rocks?
• By causing acid rain, which
dissolves rock faster
What causes state or are to have a
lot of earthquakes?
• They are located on a fault line
A new island formed in Iceland in
1963. What was most likely the
cause of this island forming?
• A volcano
Give an example of a constructive
force.
• A volcano, fault lines cause a
mountain to form, deposition
forming a delta, etc.
Give an example of a destructive
force.
• A volcano top blowing,
landslides, mudslides,
avalanches, erosion by wind,
rain, or ice, etc.
Why do scientists think there was
originally one supercontinent that split
up into the seven continents we now
have?
• The continents seem to fit
together like a puzzle and
fossils for animals from one
continent have been found on
other continents, suggesting
they were once one.
Which of the fossil layers shown is
the most recent?
The following pictures show the effects of
wave action on a rock. Which would be the
last picture if you put the pictures in order?
What type of weathering is
occurring in this picture?
a. water weathering – water is causing
erosion by moving the sand
b. wind weathering – wind is causing
erosion by moving the sand
What type of weathering is
occurring in this picture?
Water is wearing away the rock by flowing
over it.
What do glaciers form?
• Valleys (both U-shaped valleys
and V-shaped valleys,
depending on the size of the
glacier.
Explain how you could use ordinary
items from your house to make a
model of the Earth.
