Which landforms result when running water such as River erodes Rock and soil from an area?
canyons and plateaus
How does a river collect sediments?
Most sediment washes or falls into the river as a result of mass movement and runoff. Other sediment erodes from the bottom or sides of the river
What is created as a result of the moving of rock and sediments?
When rocks and sediments are moved, erosion occurs, resulting in the formation of landforms such as hills, valleys, canyons, and deltas. Sediments can also accumulate to form new landforms like beaches and sand dunes.
What landforms are not caused due to running water?
Landforms such as mountains, plateaus, and volcanoes are not primarily formed by running water. These features are usually the result of tectonic forces, volcanic activity, or erosion by ice and wind.
What are the 2 main factors that effects how quickly a coastline erodes?
The two main factors that affect how quickly a coastline erodes are wave energy and the type of rock or sediment present along the coast. Higher wave energy can result in more erosion, while softer rocks or sediments are more easily worn away compared to harder materials.
Can deltas and caves result when running water such as a river erodes sediments from an area?
I'm afraid you've misunderstood sediment, and you can't concatenate two such different structures as you have. Sediment is deposited fragments of material sized from silt up to cobbles or boulders, resulting from weathering and erosion of any rock. Deltas are estuarine deposits of sediment transported suspended in the river, from erosion up-stream. Caves, or most of them anyway, do not result from erosion of sediments, but from the erosion by chemical weathering (dissolution) of sedimentary rock - specifically limestone - and the material is carried away in solution not suspension.
Describe the events that result in a river that curves back and forth?
A river curves back and forth because it becomes wider then the river erodes land on one side and deposits sediments along the other side this causes the river to develop curves P.S. i'm 9!
What are landforms that result from magma?
Islands and volcanoes.
What type of rock is the result of processing of sediments?
Sedimentary rocks.
What is the result of deposition?
Deposition is the process where sediments, soil, or rocks are deposited by wind, water, or ice, creating new landforms such as beaches, sand dunes, or river deltas. Over time, deposition can contribute to the formation of sedimentary rocks through compaction and cementation.
How do lithogenous sediments differ from biogenous sediments?
Lithogenous sediments come from the land They result primarily from erosion by water, wind, and ice Biogenous sediments originate from organisms The particles in these sediments come from shells and hard skeletons. Although lithogenous sediments represent the largest total volume, biogenous sediments cover a greater area of sea floor
What Sediments that are formed from seawater as a result of a variety of chemical processes are called?
Sediments formed from seawater through various chemical processes are called chemical sediments or authigenic sediments. These sediments typically result from the precipitation of minerals as seawater evaporates or undergoes changes in temperature and salinity. Common examples include limestone, which forms from calcium carbonate, and evaporites such as gypsum and halite. These sediments play a significant role in marine geology and the formation of sedimentary rock.
