1) Mark an X in the correct answer:

With the lack of soil vegetation and the force of currents from rain or rivers, it causes the soil to shift, causing:

( )reforestation

2) Deforestation, real estate advancement on slopes, and inadequate agricultural techniques are factors that contribute to soil erosion:

( ) yea

( ) no

3) Check (v) true and (f) for false:

( ) Gravity erosion consists of the movement of rocks and sediments downhill mainly due to the force of gravity
( ) Rainfall erosion is not caused by the removal of material from the surface of the soil by rainwater

( ) Wind erosion occurs when the sun transports particles that hit rocks and split into more particles that hit other rocks
( ) Marine erosion is a long process of friction between seawater and rocks that end up giving way and turning into grains
( ) Chemical erosion involves all chemical processes that occur in rocks
( ) It is not glacial erosion, when glaciers move slowly, causing glacial sedimentation
( ) Fluvial erosion is the erosion of the bed and banks of rivers by their waters.
