| Geology | The study of people and locations and how they relate |
| Crust | top layer of the earth |
| % of water on earth | the percentage of the earths water is |
| Island | a piece of land surrounded by water |
| Isthmus | a narrow strip of land having water at each side and connecting two larger bodies of land |
| Delta | a deposite of sand and soil |
| Lake | body of water surrounded by land usually fresh |
| Magma | melted rock inside the earth |
| faults | when plates slide or grind past each other |
| Continental Drift Theory | pangea drifted apart |
| Convection | hot air rises, moves plates away from hot zone, then cools and falls |
| Converging | 2 plates of same type collide |
| Core | the center of the earth |
| Continents | seven large landforms on the earth |
| 4 major types of landforms | i dont know this one(look up later) |
| archipelago | a sea with many islands |
| peninsula | a piece of land surrounded on three sides by water |
| gulf | a large area of ocean |
| butte | a land form that sticks out of the ground |
| lava | magma that has errupted from a volcano |
| plate tectonics | plates that move land around |
| sea floor spreading | as time passes the earth makes more crust |
| spreading | when plates pull apart from each other |
| faulting | when plates slide or grind past each other |
| mantle | it is inside the earth between the crust and the outer core. Contains pockets of magma |
| relief | i dont know this one(look up later) |
| strait | i dont know this one(look up later) |
| volcano | land form formed by hardened lava |
| sound | i dont know this one(look up later) |
| canyon | a flat land surrounded by levitated land usually has a stream running through it |
| volcanism | i dont know this one(look up later) |
| fold | i dont know this one(look up later) |
| pangea | the theory that states the land use to be one big land mass... it was called pangea |
| rift valley | i dont know this one(look up later) |
| subduction | when oceanic and continental plate crash |
| ring of fire | i dont know this one(look up later) |
