When rising air has cooled to the point where the relative humidity is 100%, we have reached the temperature called the _____.

Question 1 options:

lifting condensation level
dew point
saturation quantity
condensation temperature
none of these are correct

 

Question 2 

 

 True or False: Weathering and Erosion are synonyms for the same processes.

Question 2 options:

True
False

 

Question 3 

 

 

True or False: Geography is a holistic science in that it incorporates understanding from all scientific and academic disciplines to answer its questions about our world.  Ultimately, it is a method, not a particular body of knowledge, known as spatial analysis that governs the field of Geography.

Question 3 options:

True
False

 

Question 4

 

Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic rocks are the three major classifications of rocks on Earth.  ______ rocks can be divided into extrusive and intrusive depending on if they formed at the surface or at depth beneath the surface.

Question 4 options:

Igneous
Sedimentary
Metamorphic

 

Question 5 

 

The basic geographic unit used to define a fluvial system is called a ______.

Question 5 options:

drainage basin
interfluve
aquifer
drainage divide
aquiclude

 

Question 6 

 

_______ is the field of study that utilizes the scientific method to understand the spatial characteristics, distributions, and interactions of physical/natural systems that make up our natural world (i.e. the environment).

Question 6 options:

Physical Geography
Geology
Chemistry
Physics
Human Geography

 

Question 7 

 

True or False: Rivers are the primary driver of erosion and sediment transport on our planet.

Question 7 options:

True
False

 

Question 8

 

As air and water vapor rise higher into the troposphere it will cool.  This is because there is less pressure on that air and water vapor.  Thus, it expands and cools.  We call this _____ cooling.

Question 8 options:

adiabatic
katabatic
convective
conductive
advective

 

Question 9

 

True or False: Differences in temperature lead to differences in pressure in the atmosphere.  This difference in pressure then generates winds that want to blow from low to high pressure.

Question 9 options:

True
False

 

Question 10

 

When modern glacial mass balance is studied on glaciers across the globe, we see that the vast majority of glaciers are receding/shrinking.  This is particularly worrisome given the implications for sea level rise.  When we build models to try and understand what is happening we see that ____ are the primary driver of modern warming resulting in glacial ice loss across the globe.

Question 10 options:

human activities
changes in orbital characteristics
volcanic eruptions
violent solar flares
solar output change
