Effects of The Hydrosphere - Worksheet With Answer

The document is a science worksheet about the hydrosphere for 5th grade students. It contains questions to test students' understanding of key terms related to weathering, erosion, deposition, floods, hurricanes, deltas, alluvial fans and other landforms. Students are asked to match terms to definitions, choose correct answers, give examples of effects of floods, and compare/contrast related concepts like weathering/erosion and deltas/alluvial fans. The worksheet evaluates students' comprehension of basic processes involving water, weather, erosion and deposition that shape the Earth's surface.
