  2. WARM-UP #1 • The material moved by erosion is called ___________________.

  3. ANSWER • sediment

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

  21. ANSWER • meanders

  22. 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. 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.

  29. WARM-UP #13 • Mass movement is caused by _________.

  30. ANSWER • gravity

  31. WARM-UP #14 • Both _______________ and _________ water cause erosion and deposition.
