2THE SYNONYM FOR PHYSICAL WEATHERING AND AN
EXAMPLE OF IT
3What is MECHANICAL AND ABRASION, EXFOLIATION OR
FROST ACTION
4The REACTION OF MATERIALS WITH WATER
5What is HYDRATION
6WHEN LARGE SHEETS OF ROCK PEEL AWAY
7What is EXFOLIATION
8DRAW A GRAPH OF PARTICLE SIZE AND RATE OF
WEATHERING.
9PARTICLE SIZE ON X RATE ON Y INVERSE RELATIONSHIP
10How does particle size affect porosity,
permeability and capillarity?
11No effect on porosity, large particles better for
permeability and small particles better for
capillarity.
12Name five agents of erosion.
13What are wind, running water, waves, glaciers,
and gravity.
14Give three characteristics of a particle if it
was transported by a glacier.
15What are unsorted, scratched and angular.
16In a meander, where is the water traveling the
fastest and where is deposition happening.
17Where is on the outside of the curve and on the
inside of the curve.
18What is the primary agent of erosion?
19What is running Water.
20When erosion and deposition are equal a system is
said to be in this.
21What is dynamic equilibrium
22Type of sorting when a stream enters a lake.
23What is Horizontal sorting.
24When kinetic energy decreases, what happens to
particles?
25What is deposition.
26Which particles settle out when the velocity of
water decreases from 100 to 25 cm/sec?
27What are Pebbles.
28Draw vertical sorting.
29What is Largest on the bottom and smallest on the
top.
30The term meaning deposition due to materials
crystallizing out from evaporation.
31What is precipitation.
32Horizontal rock, higher elevation, eroded
33What is a plateau
34Drainage pattern on a dome
35What is radial
36Only true mountain landscape in NYS
37What are The Adirondacks
38The proper name for the up and downs of a fold
and the drainage pattern produced.
39What are anticlines and synclines and Trellis
drainage.
40Most of NYS is made up of this Type of rock.
41What is Sedimentary.
42Name three factors that influence the rate of
depostion.
43What are size, Shape and density.
44What two factors Influence Landscape Formation?
45What are Climate and Geology.
46Draw a graph of stream velocity and particle size.
47Velocity on the x, Size on the y, Direct
relationship
48Give three characteristics of a mature stream.
49What is are Meanders, oxbow lakes, flood plain.
50Name the three types of moraines.
51What are terminal, medial and lateral.
