1

The continuous process by which water moves from Earth's surface to the atmosphere and back.

carbon cycle

erosion

water scycle

rock cycle

1

The process by which water changes from liquid form to an atmospheric gas (water vapor)

Traspiration

Evaporation

Evacuation

Photosynthesis

1

The process by which moisture is carried through plants and is released to the atmosphere

Photosynthesis

Transpiration

Evaporation

Condensation

1

Physical change in matter from a gas to a liquid .

Evaporation

Respiration

Condensation

Freezing

1

Chemical weathering is typically caused by all of the following EXCEPT:

water

oxygen

acid rain

freezing/thawing

1

Are erosion and weathering dependent upon one another ?

No- they are separate events that occur independently.

Yes-they both need to occur for the cycle to continue.

1

Heat and pressure deep beneath the Earth's surface can change rock to this type of rock.

when water is stored underground

When water creates lakes

when precipitation flows into rivers and lakes

1

What is the process called that allows water to seep back into the Earth?

Discharge

Infiltration

Runoff

Condensation

1

Whats the difference between weathering and erosion?

They are the same thing

One is constructive

Weathering is breaking down, erosion is moving

Erosion is breaking down, weathering is moving

1

Which of the following is NOT one of the three types of rock?

Igneous

Metamorphic

Magma

Sedimentary

1

The rock cycle includes all of the steps EXCEPT which of the following?

magma or lava cools

Sediments melt deep beneath Earth’s surface.

Extreme heat and pressure form metamorphic rocks.

Rocks @ Earth's surface are broken down into smaller pieces.

1

What is correct order of the processes responsible for the formation of sedimentary rocks?

erosion, weathering, compaction, cementation, deposition.

compaction, cementation, deposition, weathering, erosion

deposition, cementation, compaction, erosion, weathering

weathering, erosion, deposition, compaction, cementation.

1

Which of the following weathering processes involves the constant freezing & thawing of water?

Unloading

exfoliation

Frost Wedging

spheroidal weathering

1

The water cycle is :

distribution of drinking water on Earth.

unending circulation of Earth’s water supply.

the recycling of water after industrial use.

the evaporation of water from Earth’s surface.

1

Balance in the water cycle means that

average annual rain over Earth ='s amount of H20 evaporates

water that falls to Earth only enters oceans.

faliing rain ='s same weight as condesnse clouds.

water evaporates from earth surface and then stays forever in atmosphere

1

Groundwater is found underground in the zone of:

aeration

porostiy

sediment

saturation

1

During a change in state, energy is transferred in the form of

motion

heat

moisture

light

0

Which of the following processes describes how vegetation influences precipitation?

Photosythesis

transpiration

evaporation

condensation
