What do we call a measure of height above earths surface?
Height above earths surface is called elevation
What is the name of earths surface layer?
The Earth's surface layer is called the crust.
What is a particle of rock that survives a fall through earths atmosphere?
A particle of rock that survives a fall through Earth's atmosphere is called a meteorite. It is a solid object that enters Earth's atmosphere from space and reaches the surface without completely burning up. Meteorites can provide valuable information about the history and composition of our solar system.

How is heat from earths interior transferred to earths surface by convections?
Beneath the surface of the earth temperature remains the same. Within the Earth, irregular convection cells within the mantle transfer heat from the core to the surface of the planet. Volcanoes and earthquakes are two examples of heat transferring from the interior to the surface.

Why are map projecters needed?
to draw the earths surface.
What forces below earth surface shape landforms?
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
Why are there are almost no extrusive ultra basic rocks in earths crust?
There are almost no extrusive rocks on the earths surface because they are all under the earths surface. They are mainly lower than the earths surface.
What are solid particle that have been deposited on earths surface called?
Sediments is pieces of solid material that have been deposited on Earth's surface. The sediments have been deposited by wind, water, ice, gravity, or chemical precipitation.
