A canyon is a land form that is shaped by gravity and the hydrosphere. Flowing water erodes the rock over time, creating a deep, narrow valley. Gravity plays a role by pulling the water downward, accelerating erosion processes.

Which land form is most changed by the force of gravity over time?

Mountains are the land form most changed by the force of gravity over time. Gravity causes erosion, landslides, and the shifting of tectonic plates, which all contribute to the constant changes in the shape and height of mountains.


What are the four agents of erosion?

The four agents of erosion are water, wind, ice, and gravity. Water erosion is caused by rivers, streams, and rainfall. Wind erosion occurs when wind carries and deposits sediment. Ice erosion is caused by glaciers moving and carving the land. Gravity erosion involves materials being pulled downhill due to gravity.

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
