1Which process of erosion matches with the definition?
The force of the water breaks particles away from the river channel.- AHydraulic action
- BAbrasion
- CAttrition
- DSaltation
2Abrasion is when eroded rocks smash into each other and break into smaller fragments.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
3[blank_start]Abrasion[blank_end] is what happens when eroded rocks are [blank_start]picked[blank_end] up by the river. They scrape and rub against the river [blank_start]channel[blank_end], wearing it away. The [blank_start]most[blank_end] erosion happens this way.
- AAbrasion
- BAttrition
- CSaltation
- DHydraulic Action
- Epicked
- Feroded
- Gsmashed
- Hbroken
- Ichannel
- Jvalley
- Kmost
- Lleast
4Which is the definition of 'solution' (in terms of erosion)?
- AThe force of the water breaks particles away from the river channel.
- BSome types of rocks are dissolved, for example, chalk and limestone.
- CEroded rocks smash into each other and break into smaller fragments.
5[blank_start]Hydraulic action[blank_end] is when the force of the [blank_start]water[blank_end] [blank_start]breaks[blank_end] particles [blank_start]away from[blank_end] the river [blank_start]channel[blank_end].

9[blank_start]Transportation[blank_end] is the [blank_start]movement[blank_end] of eroded [blank_start]material[blank_end].
- ATransportation
10[blank_start]Suspension[blank_end] is when small [blank_start]particles[blank_end] such as [blank_start]silt[blank_end] and clay are [blank_start]carried[blank_end] along in the [blank_start]river[blank_end] water.

11[blank_start]Deposition[blank_end] is when a [blank_start]river[blank_end] drops [blank_start]eroded[blank_end] material.
- ADeposition
