perceptual skills - see manual skills - control materials using hands compositional skills - organize elements of a drawing and quickly work through preliminary sketches to show several design options conceptual skills - think through and give form to visual ideas creativity - recombining existing elements in unique ways, resulting in a new object, image, or idea creativity step one - inspiration: conscious formation of problem or goal creativity step two - incubation: consciou...

AP Environmental Science, Unit 4 verified already pass(2024/2025) Layers of the Earth - correct answer crust, mantle, outer core, inner core The three types of plate boundaries - correct answer Divergent plate (sea floor spreading), convergent plate (two plates colliding generating pressure), and transform fault (plates moving sideways past each other, causing seismic activity) Forming of volcanoes - correct answer When plates move over hotspots and heat from the rising mantle plume me...

igneous rock formed as result of tectonic process that brings magma to earth's surface what's after volcano! sedimentary rock formed from the compaction of rock fragments what's after erosion! metamorphic rocks extreme pressure causes rocks to change... will next go into magma if heats up! Pangea 200 million years ago.. all continents together hydrosphere the many bodies of water on earth's surface groundwater water stored underground in rock formations called aquifers
