Question

# 3, 16,29,63,65,72
The base level of erosion can be defined as The base of the mountain Where erosion begins in a watershed The point where two river valley join Thelowest level to which a river can erode its valley The lowest elevation in an inter mountain range Which of these types of mass movement is most likely to pose hazard to a mountain climber in a dry or arid climate ? Landslide Rock fall Mudflow Soil creep Slump Which of these is not a major factor influencing the rate and type of weathering? Temperature Rainfall Time Rock type Wind "They are generally hard or crystalline in nature". This statement best describes sedimentary rocks Igneous rocks mechanically formed sedimentary rocks organically formed sedimentary rocks cations There are approximately one hundred major soil orders recognized by the U.S. Soil Taxonomy. r times True False From your interpretation of Figure 1, which of these pedogenic soil regimes occurs in locations with very high annual temperature and very high annual precipitation? From your interpretation of Figure 1, which of these pedogenic soil regimes is most likely to occur In the Death Valley of California?

Explanation / Answer

72) e. the lowest elevation in an inter mountain range

base level of erosion is the lowest theoretical level of surface to be achieved by erosion

----------------------------------------------------

65) b. rock fall

The most rapid type of mass movement is rock avalanche

----------------------------------------------------

63) c. Time

factors influencing the type and rate of weathering are climate and rock feature

------------------------------------------------------

29) a.sedimentary rocks

-----------------------------------------------------

16) False
