<p> Name: ______Homeroom: ______Science Quiz – Constructive/Destructive Forces</p><p>1. A town near Mason’s house is having a hard time with deposition in a local stream. Sediment is being carried downstream, settling to the bottom, and a new landform is being created that causes the stream to change its path. How is beach erosion different from deposition in a stream? A. Deposition in a stream is caused by animals, and beach erosion is caused by weather. B. Beach erosion creates habitats, and stream deposition destroys new habitats for organisms. C. Stream Deposition happens only in fresh water, and beach erosion happens only in salt water. D. Beach erosion is a destructive force, and deposition in a stream is a constructive force.</p><p>2. The following table lists several of Earth’s surface features. Which statement explains columns A and B? A B Valley Volcanic Island Beach erosion Sand dune A. Column A is formed by water and Column B is formed by deposition. B. Column A is formed by weathering and Column B is formed by wind. C. Column A is formed by short-term process and Column B is long term. D. Column A is by destructive forces and Column B is from constructive forces.</p><p>3. The following diagram shows sea cliffs and small, sandy beaches formed along the water. Which statement explains how these different landforms were produced on the same coastline? </p><p>A. Weathering and erosion formed the cliffs, and deposition formed the beaches. B. Glaciers carved out the cliffs and beaches when they traveled down the coast. C. Volcanoes erupted, and the lava formed cliffs that caused the waves to create beaches. D. Earthquakes over time have broken down rock between the cliffs to form the beaches.</p><p>4. A mass of ice that moves slowly over the land is called a(n)… A. levee B. dune C. glacier D. tsunami 5. The movement of weathered rock is called… A. erosion B. deposition C. weathering D. tectonics</p><p>6. Which of the following will cause chemical weathering? A. ice B. wind C. water D. acid rain</p><p>7. Which of these is not a result of a constructive force? A. delta B. volcano C. canyon D. sand dune</p><p>8. Which of the following is NOT a cause of erosion? A. heat B. wind C. water D. ice</p><p>9. Which of the following can help prevent mudslides and erosion? A. rain B. wind C. sand D. plants</p><p>10. How can erosion change mountains over many years? A. It can make the peaks taller. B. It can make the mountain shorter. C. It can move the mountain west. D. It can cause a volcano.</p><p>11. What can occur as a result of an earthquake that erupts under the ocean? A. acid rain B. sand dunes C. a tsunami D. tornadoes</p><p>12. What can occur as a result of a volcano that erupts under the ocean? A. islands B. sand bars C. glaciers D. canyons</p><p>13. Which of the following occurs when waves pick up sand particles and move them along the shore? A. tsunamis B. glaciation C. beach erosion D. chemical weathering</p><p>14. Which are examples of destructive forces? A. erosion and deposition B. volcanoes and earthquakes C. weathering and erosion D. glaciers and sand dunes</p><p>15. How do constructive forces change Earth’s surface? A. They break down rocks. B. They build up the Earth’s surface. C. They carve river valleys. D. They cause rocks to become smaller.</p><p>16. What is weathering? A. a type of climate B. the movement of rock from one place to another C. the breaking of rock D. the removal of plants from an area</p><p>17. Deposition is BEST described as a process that… A. moved rock particles to new places. B. breaks down rock. C. builds mountains. D. drops rock in new places. 18. Rivers slow down and deposit sediments at their mouth in fan-shaped landforms called… A. deltas B. sandbars C. floodplains D. levees</p><p>19. “U” shaped valleys are formed by…. A. rivers B. lakes C. rock slides D. glaciers</p><p>20. Sediment accumulates to create all of the following EXCEPT…. A. sand dunes B. sand bars C. valleys D. deltas </p>
