- b. Sand spit
- c. Sinkhole
- d. Oxbow lake
- e. Moraine
- f. Cirque
- g. Mesa
- h. Alluvial fan
- i. Anticline
- j. Syncline
2. Describe the following:
- a. A shield-type volcano as compared to a composite volcano
- b. How a glacier moves and what evidences it leaves behind
- c. How sediments are laid down by water
- d. The different types of mountains
- e. Why a river or stream bank often keeps caving in on the outside of a bend
3. Know what category of rocks (sedimentary, metamorphic, or igneous) the following rocks are:
- a. Granite
- b. Sandstone
- c. Conglomerate

4. Take a picture or make a sketch of each of the following geological features:
- a. A bed of sediment that is coarser at the bottom and finer toward the top (This is called normal graded bedding.)
- b. Ripple marks in sand or mud (Show with an arrow the current direction if possible.)
- c. Gully erosion
- d. Mud cracks (These can usually be found after a heavy rain or flood when mud starts to dry.)
- e. Soil profile along a stream bank or road cut (You should be able to see how soil usually becomes lighter colored downward from the surface of the ground.)
- f. Sand bar (Sand bars can be found in rivers or streams, or along the ocean.)
