This is where the
oldest rocks can be
found.
What is further down
in Earth?
This is the correct
order of the divisions
of time of the
Geological Time Scalelargest to smallest.
What are eons, eras,
and periods?
This is how long it
takes soil to form.
What are thousands of
years?
These are the
components that make
up soil.
What are weathered
rock, mineral material
and organic matter?
Acids and oxygen
cause this.
What is chemical
weathering?
This is a calm area with
little to no wind
What are Doldrums?
This is what
happens to the air
molecules as you go
higher up in
altitude.
What is there are less
molecules?
The layers of the
atmosphere are
distinguished by
their_____.
What is composition,
altitude, and
temperature?
__________ is the
atmospheric
conditions, along with
short-term changes, of
a certain place at a
certain time.
What is weather?
Name the layers of the
atmosphere and
something that occurs
in each layer.
Troposphere: surfaceweather
Stratosphere: ozone layer,
airplane fly
Mesosphere: meteors
Thermosphere: satellites
Ionosphere: Auroras
Exosphere: space-no
definite end
This often forms a
mountain when layers
or lava and volcanic
ash erupt and build
up.
What are volcanoes?
This forms after an
eruption when the top
of a volcano collapses
down.
What is a caldera?
This is the force that
causes the tectonic
plates to move.
What are convection
currents in the
mantle?
This states that
continents have slowly
moved to their current
locations.
What is the hypothesis
of continental drift?
This is the evidence
that Wegener provided
to support the theory
of plate tectonics.
What are that the
continents fit together
like a puzzle, same
fossils can be found on
2 different continents,
same types of
geological formations
can be found on 2
different continents?
______ is caused by
Earth’s rotation
What is the Coriolis
Effect?
This happens when
eroded sediment slows
down or stops moving.
What is its deposited
in a new location?
The ozone layer can be
found in the ________.
What is the
stratosphere?
Frost wedging is an
example of
__________.
What is physical
weathering?
True or False:
An old stone tool
found in a cave is an
example of a fossil.
What is False?
This is the definition of a front.
What is a boundary
between cold and
warm air masses?
__________ is the current
short-term variations in the
atmosphere .
What is weather?
_________ is the
weather of a region
averaged over a long
period of time.
What is climate?
True or False:
It snows about 30
inches a year in this
area is a
description of a
climate.
What is True?
These are the layers of the
atmosphere and what can be
found in each layer.
Troposphere: surface-weather
Stratosphere: ozone layer,
airplane fly
Mesosphere: meteors
Thermosphere: satellites
Ionosphere: Auroras
Exosphere: space-no definite end
