The Earth's Surface — Test

Question 11 • Earth and Space Science

Which feature in the model forms at the surface as a result of underground cave development?

Answer
A
moraine
B
sinkhole
C
valley
D
alluvial fan

Explanation

As underground caves develop, water dissolves rock and creates openings below the surface. If the cave roof collapses, the ground above sinks and forms a sinkhole. An alluvial fan forms from deposited sediment, a valley is a low area between higher land, and a moraine is deposited glacial debris.
