rivers and coasts
the difference between hard and soft rock is that soft rock can be eroded easier than hard rock.
bays are formed by soft rock being eroded by hydraulic action.
erosion is when something is eroded away for example type of erosion is hydraulic action which is when waves crash against rocks eroding them away. an example of transportation is flotation an example of deposition is frost.
arches , caves, stacks and stumps are formed b y being eroded away until they end up as a stump
Features of a river in the upper, middle and lower course.
Including: source, waterfall, v-shaped valley, confluence, tributary, meander, flood plain, estuary, delta.
a wave cut notch is a place in the coast which has been eroded by the waves.
a spit is when there is a deposition bank in the ocean
longshore drift is when the prevailing wind moves the backwash to a fro off the coast.
Earthquakes and Volcanoes
Types of volcano - shield and composite
Immediate and long term effects (ash, pyroclastic flow, lahar, earthquake).
Plate boundaries - destructive, constructive, sliding and collisions.
Convection currents
an medc can prepare and recover better from an earthquake better than an ledc because they have more money so csn get more supplies and help.
The structure of Earth (crust, mantle, outer core, inner core).
immediate and long term affects of an earthquake is houses and buildings being destroyed.
transport and industry
the four types of industries are primary which is fishing secondary which is a bakery tertiary which is a teacher and Quaternary which is a scientist.
the employment structure between medcs and ledcs because medcs are more developed
transport links are important for businesses and to get to places
transport and industry can be bad for the environment because it creates pollution.
two types/modes of transport are cars and an airplane. the positive side of a car is that it is quick and easy to get to places but the negative side is that they take up a lot of fuel and are not good for the planet the positive side to a plane is that it gets you to places which are further away easily but the negative side is that it is expensive.
climate change is global warming and pollution we can reduces this by not using as much transport and doing things like sharing cars so not as much petrol
