As you go deeper, there are more rocks above you, and the more rocks you have, the heavier everything above you gets. When something gets heavier, it applies more pressure on an object. Therefore, when you go deeper, pressure on an object increases.

What causes saesons?
The earths tilt at its axis
Why does metamorphic rock often form deep within earths crust?
Metamorphic rocks are rocks which have been changed by heat an pressure. The deeper you go within the earth, the more heat and pressure there is, which is why metamorphic rocks form there.
Which of these causes the earth to experience season?
The Earths Inclination A+
What causes earths seasons besides its tilt?
That's it. Nothing else.
How would you describe what causes the seasons?
its earths tilt on its axis orbiting the sun
What causes the pressure to increase as you go deeper below the earths crust?
Because the density of the force increases.
Does pressure increase from earths surface toward the center of earth?
Yes.
Does pressure and temperature increase or decrease with depth below earths surface?
it increases
How does the weight of the earths crust help to form metamorpic rocks?
Weight causes density, density causes pressure, pressure causes heat. Heat and pressure change rocks into other rocks, which are metamophic.
How is the water in the swimming pool different to earths interior?

What happens to temperature and pressure as depth beneath earths surface increase?
the plates slide in place
What process causes Earth's crust to be continuously formed by volcanic activity?
Pressure from the earths core
Why does pressure increase as elevation increase?
because the clouds create a mist that is full of H, which can touch the earths atmosphere. it creates pressure in our ears because the ear wax chemically reacts to the H
What causes the pressure of the atmosphere?
Atmospheric pressure is caused by the force of the air above the earths surface. It is measured by the point in which the air meets the atmosphere.
What causes earthquaques in the pacific coast of the US?
the movement of pressure on earths plates or land causes them to push each other and cause a crack in the earth
What happens to the temperature in earths layers?
As you go deeper and deeper the layers will start to get hotter and thicker.
What causes winds to be deflected to the right or the left as they flow from high pressure to low pressure?
Winds are deflected to the right in the Northern Hemisphere because of the earths rotation.
