Across
  1. 7. by erosion, when water washes smaller and softer types of rocks away from the top of a hill
  2. 8. formed when tectonic plates collide with each other
  3. 9. the process in which materials eroded by water, wind, or ice are dropped in a new place.
  4. 11. Dune a hill of sand that is deposited by the wind
  5. 12. a large body of moving ice that stays frozen all year (found on land NOT floating in ocean)
  6. 14. created through the dissolving of limestone
  7. 16. matter that settles to the bottom of a liquid; dregs
  8. 18. large flat area formed by weathering & erosion- Water breaks it down, carrying bits of rock and dirt to lower areas.
  9. 19. a deep and narrow valley created through the movement of water
  10. 20. the process of breaking down and wearing away rock.
  11. 21. Valley valley created by flowing water
Down
  1. 1. Valley valley created by a glacier
  2. 2. the movement of weathered materials by water, wind, or ice
  3. 3. wedging weathering of rock by the repeated freezing and thawing of water in the cracks of the rocks
  4. 4. formed through the erosion of moving water
  5. 5. a large flat area of land created through the deposition of sediment at the mouth of a river
  6. 6. A natural structure on Earth’s surface
  7. 10. formed through the build up of cooled lava
  8. 13. in terms of landforms is a depression or hole in the ground, usually found in formerly glaciated areas, created when a block of buried glacial ice melts, leaving behind a cavity in the sediment
  9. 15. forms when water seeping through the ceiling of a limestone cave dissolved minerals from the rock, the water drips, minerals collect in that spot
  10. 17. a low area of land between hills or mountains, typically with a river or stream flowing through it
