Warm-Up
1. How far is the earth from the sun?
2. What are the three layers of the earth?
3. What theory states that the earth is made up of plates or huge slabs of rock that move?
This theory also helps to explain the existence of earthquakes and volcanoes.
4. Describe the following three landforms and give an example.
1. Plateau –
2. Isthmus –
3. Peninsula –
5. Approximately what percentage of the earth's surface is water?
