The thinnest layer of the Earth. Made out of solid rock.
4
crust
5
The layer of the Earth beneath the crust, that contains solid rock with some soft rock like melted candy.
6
mantle
7
Name 5 landforms found on Earth’s crust.
8
Mountains, valleys, canyons, plains, plateaus, etc.…
9
The hottest layer of the Earth that is made up of a liquid iron.
10
core
11
The theory that the Earth’s crust is broken up into 12 major plates.
12
Plate tectonics
13
What is formed when two plates collide and the crust crumples and is pushed upward?
14
mountains
15
Physical features of Earth’s surface that are constantly changing due to plate movements and other forces.
16
Landforms
17
What type of plate is this and what is formed here?
18
Convergent Boundary – mountains and volcanoes
19
What type of plate is this and what is formed here?
20
Divergent Boundary – valleys and volcanoes
21
What type of plate is this and what is formed here?
22
Transform Boundary - Earthquakes
23
What is melted or molten rock beneath the Earth’s surface called?
24
magma
25
A mountain formed at plate boundaries and formed by lava and ash.
26
Volcano
27
What do you call magma that has flowed out of a vent?
28
lava
29
How are volcanoes constructive?
30
They create new land, such as islands.
31
How are volcanoes destructive?
32
They can damage homes and plant life.
33
What do we call a shaking of the ground, caused by a sudden release of energy in Earth’s crust?
34
Earthquake
35
What tool is used to measure earthquakes?
36
Seismograph
37
How are earthquakes constructive?
38
They create new landforms, such as lakes and canyons.
39
A break in the Earth’s crust where most earthquakes occur.
40
fault
41
How are earthquakes destructive?
42
Earthquakes can destroy cites, cause tsunamis, and injure people.
43
These are shaped by the wind and the deposition of sand.
44
Sand dunes
45
This is the term which refers to the movement of sediments.
46
Erosion
47
This is the term, which refers to sediment dropping out of water.
48
Deposition
49
This tern refers to the breaking of rock.
50
Weathering
51
An area of new land, found at the mouth of a river, and created by deposition.
52
Delta
53
How do humans control the changes to Earth’s surface?
*Bonus* How do humans control the changes to Earth’s surface?
54
Building levees, jetties, dams, artificial reefs, and beach restoration.
