Across
  1. 5. - large boulders and rocks are rolled along the river bed.
  2. 7. - waves which help build up material on the beach, smaller backwash stronger swash.
  3. 9. - rocks carried along by the river wear down the river bed and banks.
  4. 10. - minerals are dissolved in the water and carried along in solution.
  5. 12. - fine light material is carried along in the water.
  6. 13. - the movement of water down the beach.
  7. 15. action - the force of the river against the banks can cause air to be trapped in cracks and crevices. The pressure weakens the banks and gradually wears it away.
Down
  1. 1. - small pebbles and stones are bounced along the river bed.
  2. 2. Weathering - Animals and plants can wear away rocks.
  3. 3. Skin - Rocks heat up and expand by day it cools and contracts it self at night
  4. 4. - waves which remove material from the beach, the swash is weaker than backwash.
  5. 6. Weathering - it is caused by rain water reacting with the mineral grains in rocks to form new minerals (clays)
  6. 8. Thaw - When rock is exposed to weather conditions it becomes subject to processes, such as freeze-thaw weathering, that cause it to change and break down.Deposition - When a river loses energy, it will drop or deposit some of the material it is carrying.
  7. 11. - salts and acids in seawater dissolve the rock gradually over thousands of years.
  8. 12. - the water flowing towards the beach when a wave breaks.
  9. 14. - rocks being carried by the river smash together and break into smaller, smoother and rounder particles.
  10. 15. - an area of land that sticks out from the coast, sometimes with bays either side.
