Weatering, Erosion, and Deposition

2. Flat land near a river that experiences flooding and deposition of sediments.
4. Wetlands that are flooded with water, often located near coasts or rivers.
5. Accumulations of dirt and rocks deposited by glaciers.
6. Weathering The process that breaks down rock through chemical changes.
10. Large natural streams of water flowing across the land.
11. Wind-blown silt and fine sediments that form fertile soils.
12. The solid layer of rock beneath the soil.
15. A landform at the mouth of a river where sediment is deposited.
17. Islands – Coastal landforms that are narrow and lie parallel to the mainland.
18. The process by which rocks are broken down by physical or chemical means.
19. Soil Organic component of soil formed from decayed plant and animal matter.
20. Hills or ridges of sand piled up by wind action.

1. The force that pulls objects towards the Earth's center, playing a key role in erosion and landslides.
2. Preserved remains or impressions of ancient organisms.
3. Weathering The mechanical breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces without changing their composition.
7. The process by which wind, water, or ice move sediment from one location to another.
8. Layers of soil that differ in color, texture, and composition.
9. The uppermost layer of soil, rich in organic matter.
13. The laying down of sediments in new locations.
14. Landforms made up of sand, pebbles, and other sediments along shorelines.
16. Sediments deposited by meltwater from glaciers, typically forming plains.
