Examples include weathering, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, organisms a large tidal wave caused by an earthquake that happens under water the pieces of Earth's crust that fit together and form the top layer of the Earth the point on Earth's surface that is directly above the focus of the earthquake the point underground where the energy buildup is released the release of energy when plates shift the instrument used to measure the intensity of an earthquake a process that constructs, or builds up an existing landform, or creates a new one. Examples include deposition, volcanoes, faults how the movement of energy in an earthquake is measured the scale used to determine the strength of an earthquake (0-10.0 scale with 6.0+ being pretty powerful) the melted, molten rock beneath Earth's surface organisms can be destructive as they eat away and/or destroy or change the landscape of the world a crack in the Earth's surface where two plates meet a theory that explained how continents shift, or change position on Earth's surface
