Examples include deposition, volcanoes, faults the release of energy when plates shift a mountain made of lava, ash, or other materials from eruptions a large tidal wave caused by an earthquake that happens under water a theory that explained how continents shift, or change position on Earth's surface the pieces of Earth's crust that fit together and form the top layer of the Earth a natural occurrence that breaks down the surrounding area. Examples include weathering, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, organisms the point on Earth's surface that is directly above the focus of the earthquake the dropping of sediment, creates a new landform (deltas and sand dunes) organisms can be destructive as they eat away and/or destroy or change the landscape of the world the melted, molten rock beneath Earth's surface how the movement of energy in an earthquake is measured the point underground where the energy buildup is released
