What is a landform?

6

Give 3 examples of landforms and explain how each one is made

4

Describe one type of landscape and explain what landforms can be found there.

Weathering is:

when the weather changes

is the breakdown of rocks by a chemical, physical or biological process

when materials are moved by wind and water

when soil and rocks are worn away and moved to a new location by wind or water

1

Erosion is

materials moved to a different location that eventually create new landforms

is the breakdown of rocks by a chemical, physical or biological process

when materials are moved by wind and water

when soil and rocks are worn away and moved to a new location by wind or water

1

Deposition

materials moved to a different location that eventually create new landforms

is the breakdown of rocks by a chemical, physical or biological process

when materials are moved by wind and water

when soil and rocks are worn away and moved to a new location by wind or water

Acid Rain is an example of:

erosion

biological weathering

physical weathering

chemical weathering

3

Explain why Australia has so many different types of landforms.

1

Explain how the plates are moving on a divergent plate boundary.

2

Explain why the tectonic plates move around the Earth (bonus point if you can name the term we use to explain how the plates move).

Volcanoes are mainly found on convergent plate boundaries.
