Answer 2

the crust, the mantle, the inner core and the outer core

Question 3

Tectonic plater boundary names

Answer 3

Divergent, convergent, collision, transform

Question 5

Different type of landscapes

Answer 5

desert, plain, lakes

Question 6

Structures of the earth

Answer 6

The crust, the mantle, the inner core and outer core

Question 7

Tectonic plate boundary names

Answer 7

divergent, collision, transform, convergent

Question 8

Whats a crest and is it top or bottom

Answer 8

it’s top and and highest surface part of a wave

Question 9

Whats a trough and top or bottom

Answer 9

its the bottom and lowest part of the wave

Question 10

Whats wave length and how to calculate it

Answer 10

velocity divided by frequency and its the distance from one crest or trough to the next

Question 11

Fetch

Answer 11

the distance of how far wind has blown over water without obstruction

Question 12

Wave period def

Answer 12

The time it takes for two crests to pass a specified point

Question 13

wave height

Answer 13

Wave heights describe the average height of the highest third of the waves

Question 14

formation of a wave and how it breaks

Answer 14

On most days there is some sort of combination of wind and swell waves hitting on our beaches. Waves break when the shape of the wave becomes too steep and this usually happens as waves travel from deep water to shallow water

Question 15

Constructive wave and destructive and the difference

Answer 15

constructive are slow and are what causes build up of materials on the beach. Destructive waves have strong backwashes

Question 16

Swash and backwash meaning

Answer 16

swash- the layer of water after a wave has broken

backwash- the water that goes back into the sea

Question 17

Coastal processes

Answer 17

erosion and disposition

Question 18

Stack formation

Answer 18

Coastal erosion or the slow wearing of rock by water and wind over very long periods of time causes a stack to form.

Question 19

hydraulic actions

Answer 19

Hydraulic Action is the sheer force of water crashing against the coastline causing material to be dislodged and carried away by the sea.

Question 20

corrosion

Answer 20

Corrosion is where water in waves dissolves rock minerals.

Question 21

attrition

Answer 21

Attrition is when material such as rocks and stones carried by waves hit and knock against each other wearing them down

Question 22

abrasion

Answer 22

In geography, abrasion refers to a form of erosion in which pebbles and other sediment are ground along a solid surface

Question 23

types of mountains 3

Answer 23

rocky (ash and mud and natural sources), fold (two or more tectonic plates pushed together) and unwarned (when a plater hits a fault and tips upside down)

Question 24

what’s a volcano

Answer 24

a mountain or hill with a vent going through it filled with lava, gas and hot vapor

Question 25

type of volcano

Answer 25

stratavolcano (mt etna) formed by layers of magma

Question 26

how r volcanos formed

Answer 26

a build up of heigh and pressure deep inside the earth

Question 27

cross section of a volcano

Answer 27

A cross section is a diagram of a volcano showing the crater, vent, magma chamber, layers or rock and crust.

Question 28

what’s a hot spot in a volcano

Answer 28

A volcanic hotspot is an area with lots of volcanic action

Question 29

what are the sheept factors

Answer 29

Social, historical, enviromental, economic, political and t is for technological

Question 30

why are coasts important

Answer 30

Habitats for biodiversity, economic value and transportation

Question 31

how a sand dune is formed and what it is

Answer 31

Sand dunes are natural land forms created by wind or water carrying and depositing sand.

Question 32

how do coasts change

Answer 32

Coasts are dynamic and change due to Enviromental and human activity.
