Movement • There is a lot of movement going on, on the earth. • Below the earth, movement can be a hazard causing earthquakes. • Ontario has only had minor earthquakes.
Earthquakes Earthquakes happen when sections of the earth crusts shift. The shifting parts are called plates, they are pieces of the crust floating on the hot molten interior or the earth.
People Moving • Large amounts of people migrate more than ever with vehicles. • People might move because of lack of food or wars in the area, these are called push factors. • Jobs or scenery that might make you want to move are called pull factors. • Things that may make you stay in the area are called barriers.
Transportation • There are many different ways to go somewhere. • Most people used to prefer walking or on an animal. But modern people are using cars, bikes and other motorized vehicles. • The first mode of transportation is by bike. You can be fit to a small area but can’t go very far. • The most commonly used vehicle is the car which allows us to go almost anywhere.
Trucks All day many trucks haul huge amounts of freights across Canada, becoming almost as common as the car.
Trains An Efficient mode of transportation are trains. Trains move people and big loads, although today Canadian trains mostly carry freight, not people.
Ships Ships have the ability to move great quantities all over the world at a low cost and major canals were built to make traveling easier.
Planes Everyday, thousands of aircrafts carry people, mail and cargo to all points around the globe.
Food and Electricity Food Electricity Electricity comes to you through a power grid or system. • Your food comes from different sources.
Pipes When you flush or drink water it all goes through pipes. Pipes also move water wastes, oil, gas, chemicals and coal. There is little labour involved.
Movement Patterns • All movement creates a pattern. • Every pattern has components: • - points • - lines • - areas • - volume • Points are connected by a road or line. Your neighbourhood is an area and the amount of something is volume.
