Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

give an example of mechanical weathering

burrow
a very large area of ice that moves slowly down a slope or valley or over a wide area of land

levee
a deep valley with steep rock sides and often a stream or river flowing through it
canyon
a piece of land shaped like a triangle that is formed when a river splits into smaller rivers before it flows into an ocean
delta
weathering in which rocks and minerals are dissolved
chemical weathering
weathering in which rocks are physically broken into pieces (this is also called physical weathering)
mechanical weathering
materials deposited by some natural process
sediment
happens when compounds from burning coal, oil, and gas react chemically with water and forms acid
acid rain
the process by which rocks, sand, and sediment are deposited by the forces of erosion
deposition
process of wearing away earth materials by water, wind, or ice (it makes a physical change)
erosion
slow breaking down of rocks into smaller pieces
