will give medal and fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mass wasting _____. is the movement of sediment up a slope happens when glaciers pluck rocks from Earth's surface only happens in hot climates with a lot of moisture is caused by weathering and gravity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@KittyT

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mass wasting, also known as slope movement or mass movement, is the geomorphic process by which soil, sand, regolith, and rock move downslope typically as a mass, largely under the force of gravity, but frequently affected by water and water content as in submarine environments and mudslides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no no its A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i have a bunch more can you help please

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sory for wrong answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mountains are _____. formed from seismic waves built by wind erosion created when tectonic plates converge formed by saltation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk yet i have to finish my work then submit it when im done i will let you know @sikinder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

created when tectonic plates converge.example;- Himalayas

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Weathering in the Amazon Jungle happens__________ weathering in the Gobi Desert. more quickly than more slowly than at the same speed as @sikinder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

more quickly than .because of more flow of water in amazon river

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which of the following is the medium which creates oxbows? water wind ice gravity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it oxbow lakes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk it just says oxbows

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is done by water

The sun weathers rocks by _____. dissolving its minerals heating its minerals unevenly chemically reactiong with its minerals melting and freezing its minerals

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sikinder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@KittyT

OpenStudy (anonymous):

heating its minerals unevenly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Erosion _____. is the same as weathering is always a destructive process happens more quickly in cold climates than in warm ones is the movement of sediment from one location to another

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the movement of sediment from one location to another

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Convergent faults ___. can form mountains and volcanoes happen when tectonic plates move away from one another create new oceanic crust through sea-floor spreading happen when tectonic plates stop moving

OpenStudy (anonymous):

In plate tectonics, a convergent boundary, also known as a destructive plate boundary (because of subduction), is an actively deforming region where two (or more) tectonic plates or fragments of the lithosphere move toward one another and collide.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its create new oceanic crust through sea-floor spreading

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Seismic waves and water can weaken soil, causing it to move. This is called _____. flooding liquefaction seismic shifting earthquake erosion

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sikinder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

earthquake erosion

Silt particles are smaller than sand particles. Which of the following statements is true? Silt has a higher terminal fall velocity than sand. Silt has a higher threshold velocity than sand. Silt is more vulnerable to wind erosion than sand. Silt can't be carried by wind, but sand can.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Silt has a higher threshold velocity than sand.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wind erosion _____. removes fertile topsoil happens slowly in dry climates can be reduced by cutting down trees creates oxbow lakes and deltas

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@sikinder

OpenStudy (anonymous):

removes fertile topsoil

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Coarse, infertile soil _____. is described as loamy is found in river deltas is found near the base of mountains contains high levels of potassium (K)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is found near the base of mountains

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will be back in 5 mins ok!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The best way to reduce wind erosion on a farm is to _____. cut down windbreaks stop planting crops stop irrigating unused fields plant ground cover in unused fields

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plant ground cover in unused fields

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):
