RAP: 1.____type of mechanical weathering when water freezes and melts in the cracks of rocks 2._____ type of chemical weathering where metals react with oxygen to form rust 3._________ is the natural moving of materials from one place to another. (erosion or deposition)
2
Erosion and Deposition 9/4 1. What is erosion? 2. What are the 5 agents of erosion? 3. What is deposition?
3
Erosion and Depostion 1.Erosion is the natural moving of materials from one place to another. 2.The agents of erosion are running water, gravity, wind, glaciers, and waves. Running Water-river (Grand Canyon) Gravity –landslide pulls mud, rock, and soil down a mountain.
4
Wind moves sand from one place to another creating sand dunes. Glaciers (moving ice) scrape rocks off land and move the rocks downhill creating u shaped valleys. Waves wash sand from one place to another (one beach shrinks and one is created). 3. Deposition is the dropping off of sediments and building up of land.
5
1. _____type of rocks that form in oceans, rivers, and lakes (sediemntary rock) 2. _____type of igeous rock that cools on Earth’s surface (igneous) 3. _____ name one mineral that can scratch topaz (minerals) 4,____ process that can break down entire mountain ranges (mechanical weathering) 5. ____ texture of metamorphic rocks where the minerals are aligned like the pages of a book (metamorphic) Review questions
