What are Round depression's on the moon's surface are called?
highlands
What is the name for a depression in the moon caused by an object striking its surface?
They are referred to as impact craters.
What are the large holes on the moon called?
The large indentation on the surface of the moon areÊcalled craters. It is a circular depression in the surface of the moon and other solid body in the solar system.Ê
If you drop marbles into a pan of sand what would you be simulating about the Moon's surface?
By dropping marbles into a pan of sand, you would be simulating the impact craters that form on the Moon's surface due to meteorite collisions. The craters are created when high-speed objects strike the Moon, displacing the surface material and creating a depression.
What is the bowl shaped pits on the moon called?
The bowl-shaped pits on the moon are called impact craters. They are formed when a meteorite or asteroid collides with the moon's surface, causing the material to be ejected and creating a depression.

Name for long narrow depression on the surface of the moon?

A bowl shaped depression on a planet or moon?
This is likely a crater, which is formed by the impact of a meteorite or other celestial object hitting the surface of the planet or moon. The impact causes material to be displaced, creating a bowl-shaped depression in the ground.

What is a depression on earths surface that can be dry or filled with water?
A depression on the surface of the Earth created by groundwater is known as a cone of depression.
Meteorites that strike the moons surface cause which surface feature?
Meteorites that strike the moon's surface can cause impact craters. These craters are formed when the meteorite hits the surface at high speeds, creating a depression in the lunar landscape. Over time, these impact craters can provide valuable information about the history of meteorite impacts on the moon.
What is the surface of the moon called?
The outer surface of the moon is called the crust.
What is the difference between mare and a rille?
In the geography of the moon, a mare is a large depression (think sea) and a rille is a groove in the surface (think canal or channel)
What is a depression in the Moon's surface caused by the impact of an asteroid or meteoroid?
The usual term is crater. Most craters are nearly circular holes surrounded by rims of ejected material. The term "impact basin" is used for the multiple-ringed structures formed by large impacts.
