1 Round Table Jeopardy

2 After this is built on a beach, currents will most likely carry more sand to the beach above this structure.

3 What is a jetty?

4 A river channel is now so shallow that ships are getting stuck in the mud. What is the most likely cause?

5 What is water depositing sediment?

6 When this is deposited along the banks of a river, the river becomes narrower.

7 What is sediment?

8 Volcanoes form above this. The volcanoes move as the plate moves.

9 What is a hot spot?

10 This is located above the focus.

11 What is the epicenter?

12 This can cause changes to topography and a river to become wider and deeper.

13 What is a rapidly flowing river.

14 When plates push against each other this is formed.

15 What is a mountain?

16 This records the strength of an earthquake, when the earthquake occurred and how long the earthquake lasted.

17 What is a seismograph ?

18 These are made by rivers cutting through land

19 What are canyons?

20 The movement of Earth’s plates can form this large landform.

21 What are mountains?

22 This volcano is wide and has steep slopes
This volcano is wide and has steep slopes. It is formed of alternating layers of lava and ash.

23 What is a composite volcano

24 As Earth’s plates bend and crack these are formed.

25 What are faults?

26 The part of the Earth that is divided into plates

27 What is the crust?

28 Both of these (2) are formed when wind or water slows down and deposits sediments

29 What are deltas and sand dunes

30 This helps prevent flooding by keeping rising water inside stream channels.

31 What is a Levee

32 This records the strength of an earthquake

33 What is a seismograph

34 The Providence Canyon is a Georgia landform most likely to be affected by this.

35 What is weathering?

36 When sediments drop at the mouth of a river this is formed

37 What is a delta

38 This is formed when groundwater erodes soft rock

39 What are sinkholes

40 These landforms are formed by running water

41 What are canyons and mesas

42 These change the Earth’s landforms because they form mountains of ash and lava

43 What are volcanoes?

44 Plants and grass on a sand dune can help slow down the process of this.

45 What is erosion

46 This helps absorb the water during flooding?

47 What are floodplains

48 Jagged mountain peaks can become rounded due to this

49 What is weathering by wind and water ?

50 The least damage to surface features after an earthquake are usually seen in this area?

51 What is far from the epicenter

52 A dam, levee, and floodplains help control this

53 What is flooding?

54 These are infrequent in Georgia because Georgia is not located near the edge of a plate

55 What are earthquakes?
