Forces that Change the Earth Assessment 1. Which of the following was most likely caused by tectonic plates colliding? 2. Which of the following processes is occurring when rainwater dissolves volcanic rock? A Folding B Deposition C Erosion D Faulting 3. Which two processes contributed most to the accumulation of soil in this river valley? A Pressure and uplift B Erosion and deposition C Earthquakes and faulting D Percolation and evaporation 4. The map above shows the western coast of South America. Which process caused the upward movement that formed the Andes Mountains? A Seafloor spreading B Deposition of sediment C Tectonic plate collision D Erosion of rock layers 5. In the picture above, the rocks at the bases of the trees were separated from the cliff face by water freezing and thawing. Which process best describes the breaking of the rock? A Soil erosion B Mountain building C Chemical weathering D Physical weathering 6. Which diagram best represents the type of plate movement that results in mountain building? 7. Above a hot spot under an oceanic plate, large quantities of lava continually erupt through the seafloor. If the lava builds up to an elevation greater than sea level, what type of landform will result? A Barrier island B Volcanic island C Peninsula D Continent 8. A group of students found metamorphic rocks near a campsite. The presence of metamorphic rocks is most likely evidence of — A dinosaur activity B sediment deposition C high pressure D wind-borne sand
