Meteorites can make large depressions on Earth’s surface when they make impact. Why are so few of these depressions visible on Earth’s surface?

Question

• Earth is constantly changing it’s topography due to volcanic activity, or processes such as weathering, erosion, and deposition. ***
• Since Earth’s surface is mostly water, it is difficult for a meteorite to make a depression that can be seen.
• The meteorite became buried underground so the actual depression is filled by the meteorite.

Answer 1

probably the best answer.
