WARM-UP #2 Any process that moves sediment downhill is called_____________.

5 ANSWER Mass movement

6 WARM-UP #3 A huge chunk of ice that moves over the land is a(n) ___________________.

7 ANSWER glacier

8 WARM-UP #4 The form of mass movement that moves all at once is called _________________.

9 ANSWER slump

10 VOCABULARY Gravity – is the force that moves rocks and other materials
Mass movement – any one of several processes that move sediment down hill. Run off – water that moves over Earth’s surface

11 WARM-UP #5 The process by which wind picks up sediment from the surface is ________________.

12 ANSWER deflation

13 WARM-UP #6 When rocks and soil move very slow down a hill, it is called _________________.

14 ANSWER creep

15 WARM-UP #7 Tiny pieces of sediment that are dropped by the wind are __________________ ____.

16 ANSWER loess

17 _____________ causes all types of mass movements.
WARM-UP #8 _____________ causes all types of mass movements.

18 ANSWER gravity

19 VOCABULARY Meanders – loop like bends in the course of a river
Groundwater – water that is under the ground Glaciers – large mass of ice that moves over land slowly…forms where there is more snow falls than melts

20 _____________ is the loop like bends in the course of a river.
WARM-UP #9 _____________ is the loop like bends in the course of a river.

21 ANSWER meanders

22 The most destructive form of mass movement is a(n) _________________.
WARM-UP #10 The most destructive form of mass movement is a(n) _________________.

23 ANSWER landslide

24 WARM-UP #11 A large mass of ice that moves across land slowly is a(n) ________________.

25 ANSWER glacier

26 Most ______________ comes from weathering.
WARM-UP #12 Most ______________ comes from weathering.

27 ANSWER sediment

28 VOCABULARY Deflation – the process by which wind pick up sediment from the surface. Loess – tiny pieces of sediment that are dropped by the wind. Pluck – the picking up of rock by a glacier as it moves over the land slowly. Deposition – deposits of sediment that have eroded off the land.
