Across
  1. 5. is typically a low-lying triangular area located at the mouth of rivers where it meets an ocean seas, or estuaries.
  2. 6. largest layer of Earth. Composed of iron, aluminum, calcium, magnesium, silicon, and oxygen.
  3. 8. Land situated between hills or mountains
  4. 10. Are defined as the natural phyisical features on the surface of Earth.
  5. 12. It is the field that protects us from harmful rays emitted by the sun.
  6. 13. Are mounds or small hills made up of sand. May be dome-shaped, crescent-shaped, star-shaped, linear-shaped, or parabolic.
  7. 15. Study of the flow of matter
  8. 16. also known as table lands or flat-topped mountains, are portion of lands elevated thousands of feet above their surroundings.
  9. 17. Is the study of the current terrain features of a region and the graphic representation of a particular landform on a map.
  10. 19. is outer solid part of the planet include Earth's crust as well as the underlying cool, dense and rigid upper part of the upper mantle.
  11. 20. Is a predominantly silt-sized sediment formed by the accumulation of windblown dust.
  12. 21. Deep ravine between cliffs that is often carved from the landscape by a river, wind, or glacier.
Down
  1. 1. is a bend in a sinuous watercourse of river. It is formed when moving water in a stream erodes the out banks then widens its valley.
  2. 2. It is the effect due to convection by heat radiating from the core together with the rotation of Earth on its axis, the liquid iron moves in a rotational pattern which is believed to be the source of magnetic field of the Earth.
  3. 3. Are landforms that are controlled by geological processes that form them and continually act on them after their formation.
  4. 4. Elevated portions of lands smaller than mountains
  5. 7. also called byland or biland, is a piece of land that projects into a body of water and is connected to the mainland by an isthmus.
  6. 9. are flat and broad land areas that have no great changes in elevation when measured with reference to the mean sea level.
  7. 11. Last and innermost layer which is separated into the liquid outer core and the solid inner core.
  8. 12. is the scientific study of landforms and the processes that shape them.
  9. 14. Almost similar to mesa as it has a flat-topped hill and steep sides and are formed in arid to semi-aride conditions.
  10. 18. outermost layer of Eath. Thinnest layer because it only makes up about one percent of Earth.
