Unit 2 Changes to the Earth’s Surface Lesson 2 Unit Notes pg. 240-246 1. Label the 4 layers of Earth on the diagram below: crust inner core mantel outer core 2. This layer of Earth is the thin outer layer that includes the land that makes up the continents and the land under the oceans: ______________________ 3. This layer of Earth is the second layer made of rock. It is so hot in some places that the rock has melted to form magma: _______________________ 4. The center of Earth is called __________________________. It is made up of _______________________ and ____________________________. 5. The outer core is ________________________________. The inner core is ______________________________. 6. Earth’s crust and mantel are broken into large rock slaps called ___________________________. 7. How much do the plates move each year? ___________________________ 8. Name 3 ways plates can move: a. __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ b. __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ c. __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ 9. A _________________________________ is a mountain that forms as lava flows through a crack onto Earth’s surface. 10. __________________________ volcanoes are made of layers of lava, rock, and ash. They have steep peaks and are explosive when they erupt. 11. __________________________ volcanoes erupt slowly and lava flows steadily down their gently sloping sides. 12. ___________________________ volcanoes are small and have steep sides and shoot chunks of rock into the air and down their slopes. Unit 2 Changes to the Earth’s Surface Lesson 2 Unit Notes pg. 240-246 13. What can cause Earthquakes? ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________ 14. An _____________________________ is the shaking of Earth’s surface caused by movement of rock in the crust. 15. A _____________________________ is a break in the crust where rocks move and is where most earthquakes occur. 16. ______________________________ can cause big changes to Earth’s surface and take longer to affect the land around them. 17. In ____________________________, rivers drop bits of rock and soil along the way. This builds deltas and floodplains. 18. A ______________________________ is a large, moving mass of ice. 19. Name the two types of glaciers:__________________and__________________ 20. ____________________________ changes Earth’s surface by carrying and moving loose soil and by blowing sand into rocks. 21. _____________________________ changes Earth’s surface by breaking down rocky clifs and changing the shape of the coastline.
