The most frequent cause of major earthquakes is the

gravitational pull of the moon as it orbits Earth

change in underwater currents

occurence of landslides

pressure from tectonic plate movement

describe the physical processes that affect the environments of regions, including weather, tectonic forces, erosion, and soil-building processes; and

1

Which best explains why we experience four seasons on Earth

the distance between Earth and the Sun

the gravitational pull of the moon

the effect of tectonic plate movement on Earth's oceans

the tilt of the Earth on its axis as it revolves around the Sun

describe the physical processes that affect the environments of regions, including weather, tectonic forces, erosion, and soil-building processes; and

A farmer sees an area he beieves will be good for farming because of its rich topsoil. Which process contributed most to forming this rich topsoil?

sand storms

folding of Earth's crust

ocean currents

decaying plant life

describe the physical processes that affect the environments of regions, including weather, tectonic forces, erosion, and soil-building processes; and

Erosion is the process by which rock, sand and soil are broken down and carried away

The diagram illustrates an important scientific theory. What does that theory claim?

Earth's continents are slowly moving together

There is little difference in the climatic patterns found on most continents

Millions of years ago, Earth's continents formed on giant continent

Earth moves around the Sun
