Rocks may be broken physically into smaller pieces. They may also be broken as a result of change in chemical composition. The breaking down of rocks (either physically or chemically) at or near the earth's surface is called weathering. Rocks are weatherd in different ways such as: 1.Weathering of rocks by water 2. Weathering of rocks by the wind 3. Weathering of rocks by plants 4. Weathering of rocks by animals 5. Weathering of rocks by the people
Weathering means the breaking down of the integrity of a substance or its structure by means of the agents of weather. These include solution, freeze-thaw cycles, wet-dry cycles, and so on. And would include sand-blasting as demonstrated in ventifacts - particularly shaped rocks common on desert basement surfaces.
weathering is when material is worn away. erosion is when material is carried away.
This helps prcess exposed rocks and decompose.
Weathering of rocks happen as a result of mechanical action of water and wind.
Exposure, weathering, and erosion can transform a metamorphic rock into sediments.

Weathering and erosion.
The breaking down of rocks is weathering. Their movement from one place to another place is erosion.

Weathering or melt.
By weathering and erosion. The types of weathering used is:physical weathering- when a plant grows inside a rock and the roots break it apart; abrasion- mechanical weathering - erosion- and chemical weathering - acid rain, water weathering and erosion.
