Ecology
Across
- 4. when on substance gains electrons and the other loses them
- 5. erosion when water flows over a hill and cuts shallow curvy channels
- 9. soil deposition of rocks that have been transported form original place
- 10. wedging rocks splitting up of rocks from freezing water
- 11. weathering where rocks with water and substances dissolved in it
- 12. breaking down of rock and other material.
- 14. profile layers in soil in the ground
- 15. upper layer of earth that plants can grow in
- 16. erosion removal of soil along drainage lines
Down
- 1. soil soil that has been moved from original place by water or wind
- 2. the laying down of sediment carried by wind or water
- 3. horizon layer parallel to the soil surface whose physical chemical and biological characteristics differ from each other
- 6. where curved rocks plates of rock are stripped from rock below
- 7. natural occurring solid materials such as metals and gems
- 8. weathering rocks crumble from water freezing.
- 13. when dirt or something is transported away or worn by water or wind
