What causes landslides mudslides and sinkholes?
the Plates shifting
Who invented the sinkholes?
Sinkholes are a phenomenon that occur when space below the surface is eroded or evacuated, perhaps by water. An example is a broken water line.
What does karst topography form in?
If the gaps caused by the water are near the surface, the ground at the surface may collapse. This causes a sickhole to form. An area of land that has lots of sinkholes is called a karst
What property of water causes cells to burst when frozen?
Expansion of water as it freezes ruptures the cell walls.
Where can you find sinkholes?
You can find sinkholes in fl
What property of water allows it to form sinkholes?
It's ability to weather and erode rock.
Which property of water causes a curved surface?
Adhesion is the property of water causes the curved surface
What type of weathering causes sinkholes?
chemacal
What property causes water to form beads?
The property that causes water to form beads is called surface tension.
What is causing the trend of large sinkholes opening up under buildings and homes in places all over the world?
the causes of sinkholes around the world is underground water and sewer pipes below cities and towns
What is the impact of an earthquake?
it causes fires and floods and sinkholes
What causes landslides mudslides and sinkholes?
the Plates shifting
What causes sinkholes to form in the Yucatan?
The roofs of these caves collapse
What are the three causes of sinkholes in Florida?
Florida has a lot of porous limestone underneath the surface. It can hold lots of water in underground aquifers. As groundwater flows through the limestone, it forms an eroded landscape called karst, known for caves, springs and sinkholes.

What causes sinkholes and caves?
Sinkholes are typically caused by the erosion of underground rocks such as limestone, leading to the collapse of the surface layer. Caves are formed through a similar process, where water dissolves and erodes the rock over time, creating underground voids. These geological features can also be affected by human activities like mining and construction.
Can sinkholes form under water?
yes
