| Central Question: Why is the earth's surface shaped like it is? What processes have caused it to be that way? Guiding Thought Question: Why is it inaccurate to say that the earth is a perfect sphere? Today's Learning Objective: Students will be able to explain the principles of erosion and how the earth is continually shaped. Students will take notes on the types of erosion and then conduct a map and field study to find evidence of different types of geomorphology |  |

because everything isn’t just surface level and below there is move like mountains and it’s going to be rocky so it won’t be perfectly smooth

due to the force caused by earths rotation the earth is not a perfect sphere therefore saying it is would be inaccurate

The way the Earth spins elongates the equator and the pressure on the poles flattens it

Gravitational force, mountain ranges, erosion.

The Earth is shaped the way it is due to the gravitational forces applied at the poles, as well as the mountain ranges and deep gapes left by the oceans of the world, making the earth not a perfect square but a Geoid.

Because there are interruptions in what would be called a "perfect sphere", such as mountain ranges, depressions where the oceans go, continents rising out of said oceans, etc. Leave a Reply. |
