Large depressions on the moon are called craters. These are formed by the impact of meteoroids, asteroids, or comets hitting the moon's surface.
Large depressions on the Moon caused by meteorite impacts are called impact craters. These craters vary in size and can range from small pits to massive basins. The process occurs when a meteorite strikes the Moon's surface, creating a bowl-shaped cavity. Over time, many of these craters have been preserved due to the Moon's lack of atmosphere and geological activity.
Craters on the moon were formed primarily through two processes: impact from meteoroids and volcanic activity. Impact craters were created when meteoroids collided with the moon's surface, causing large depressions. Volcanic craters, on the other hand, formed when volcanic activity released magma and gases, creating bowl-shaped depressions.
The large smooth areas on the moon are called lunar maria. They are formed by ancient volcanic activity that filled in large impact basins with basaltic lava flows, creating the smooth surface we see today.
yes. The craters you see with the naked eye looking at the moon are from meteors striking the moon. meteorites are what is left of a meteor that has already struck a large body (such as a planet or moon)

Meteorites are formed from large objects or planets colliding creating smaller debris. These debris then begin to travel at high speeds through space.

A large hole in the ground left from the melting of a huge chunk of glacial ice is called a kettle Also . . . Large bowl shaped depressions that occur at the head of mountain glaciers that result from a combination of frost wedging, glacial plucking, and abrasion are called cirques

Most craters are caused by meteorites crashing to the planet. However, some volcanoes when formed, look like craters.
A large crack in the ground formed by a river is called a gorge or canyon. If it is formed by a series of earthquakes, it is called a fault line or fissure.
A large compound formed by the joining of smaller compounds is called a polymer.
Feces is formed in the large intestine.
