What landforms are created through deposition?
Well deposition means it drops particulars or landforms in a new location and it makes a whole new world. Also erosion can make sand dunes the water cycle and it can sometimes carve out canyons, mountain, valleys, and tributaries.
Can weathering erosion and deposition affect the wildlife of an area?
Yes, weathering, erosion, and deposition can affect the habitat and food sources of wildlife in an area. These processes can change the landscape, altering vegetation, water sources, and shelter for animals. This can impact the survival and behavior of wildlife species living in that area.
What rock encloses a fossil?
Sedimentary rock is commonly found enclosing fossils, as it is formed by the accumulation of sediment over time which can preserve the remains of organisms. Fossils are also occasionally found in igneous and metamorphic rocks, though these are less common as those types of rocks are formed through processes that usually destroy any fossil evidence.
What happen when carbon dioxide gas is passed though lime water which compound is formed?
Calcium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate.
How are plate tectonics formed?
Tectonic plates can be formed when two land masses collide over time (also how mountains can be formed). In this case however one land mass slides over the other. This can be very unstable though which is why earthquakes happen.
Is the kettle a result of erosion or deposition?
kettle is a result of erosion though the material is an ancient deposition
Tell how snowdrifts and sand dunes are formed in similar ways. Then describe differences in how they are formed.?
Similar: Both are formed by wind. Different: Sand dunes are formed by deposition. Snowdrifts are formed by weathering. ++ They are both formed by deposition of a granular material by the wind. Weathering is totally different - it is the breakdown of rock (or other materials) by the weather, biological agents, etc. - though sand is a product of the weathering of rock.

How does disconformity form?
Two ways unconformities form when... 1) When deposition stops after a supply of sediment is cut off. 2) When erosion removes layers in sedimentary rock. +++ That needs amplifying. An unconformity results when new rock is deposited on existing rock, with the expected intervening sequence either not deposited in the first place (as point 1 above hints at) or eroded away as (point2) says, though the older rock need not be sedimentary. If the unconformity's basement dips at a different angle to the new rocks, as is common, the unconformity is described as "angular".
What river has the world largest discharge of sediment?
Ganges, though there are others close, such as the Amazon.
Do tornadoes cause weathering erosion and deposition?
Tornadoes do not directly cause weathering, erosion, or deposition. However, tornadoes can indirectly contribute to these processes by moving and depositing sediment and debris. The strong winds and flying debris associated with tornadoes can impact geological features and accelerate the process of erosion in affected areas.
Where may a crater be formed on a volcano?
a crater can be formed anywhere in a volcano. its usually formed at the top though.
How are waves fored and how do they shape coastal areas?
Waves are formed from wind and other disturbances in far out water as they get closer to shore the have less water to move and so they are moved upward where the reach their crest and hit the shore. They can easily move sand and rock. They also make sand by crushing up seashells and other debris on the shore. Their biggest force though is erosion. Meaning they wear away at the shore.

Is an arete a result of erosion or deposition?
An arête is a thin, almost knife-like, ridge of rock which is typically formed when two glaciers erode parallel U-shaped valleys, or else when two corrie glaciers erode back-to-back. An arête is a formed as a result of erosion, though the material it is made of may be an ancient deposition (this, however, is irrelevant).
