Examples include weathering, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, organisms the molten rock when it reaches Earth's surface a large tidal wave caused by an earthquake that happens under water the melted, molten rock beneath Earth's surface the dropping of sediment, creates a new landform (deltas and sand dunes) a process that constructs, or builds up an existing landform, or creates a new one. Examples include deposition, volcanoes, faults a theory that explained how continents shift, or change position on Earth's surface the point underground where the energy buildup is released organisms can be destructive as they eat away and/or destroy or change the landscape of the world the instrument used to measure the intensity of an earthquake a mountain made of lava, ash, or other materials from eruptions how the movement of energy in an earthquake is measured a crack in the Earth's surface where two plates meet the scale used to determine the strength of an earthquake (0-10.0 scale with 6.0+ being pretty powerful) the pieces of Earth's crust that fit together and form the top layer of the Earth A former "supercontinent" on the Earth that included all the present continents, which broke up and drifted apart the point on Earth's surface that is directly above the focus of the earthquake the release of energy when plates shift
