No. They are separate processes. Weathering -chemical and physical breaks down solid rock into smaller particles and prepares it for transportation or erosion.

The factors that change Earth's surface?

I seriously have to say that it is wind, water, erosion, or weathering


What is the movement of rock particles by wind water ice or gravity?

Erosion. Weathering is the physical and chemical breakdown of rock. Erosion is the removal of of weathered sediments. Transport is the movement of weathered sediments (say in suspension in river water) during the erosion process. Deposition is the laying down of the transported sediments in a new location.

How do humans intervene with weathering and erosion?

Well on the beaches there's smalls sand dunes and they say not to step on them, that's cause for deposition to make a sand dune takes long time and when someone steps on them thy are destroyed the sand dune i hope this :D


How do humans add to the erosion process?

they say that is is afual


How are the process of weathering erosion and doposition related?

Weathering occurs when rocks are broken down into smaller particles but not moved When natural forces begin to move weathered particles, called sediments, we say that they are being eroded, or undergoing erosion. Most of earth's erosion is done by flowing water in streams which carry tons of sediment to the oceans each day Deposition occurs when movement slows or stops and suspended sediments are dropped.


What is the first part of the rock cycle?

There is realy no start, but i gusse you could say that magma and lava could be the start.


Describe the processes involved in erosion?

neither really happens "first." Erosion is the process of earth being moved from one place and being deposited at another. Weathering is the breaking down of structures into pieces that can then be taken away. So, in the cases where there is weathering, weathering would occur first then erosion.Weathering, the wearing down of rocks or soil, happens before erosion, the removal of rock or soil.


How are physical weathering and chemical weathering similar?

It would be easier to say how they are different. Both physical and chemical weathering can cause pitting, erosion of material and degradation of optical properties, making glass surfaces less reflective or transmissive.


How the Grand Canyon got its name?

well what do you think when you see it Grand Canyon well. its reallt big and tall large and deep so they called is Grand and its a canyon so hence you have the Grand Canyon!! ^^^^^^^^_________^^^^^^^^^


Why the process of weathering are interconnected?

The processes of weathering are interconnected because they work together to break down and decompose rocks and minerals at the Earth's surface. Physical weathering, such as freeze-thaw cycles or abrasion, can create smaller rock fragments that are then more easily chemically weathered by processes like oxidation or hydration. These chemical reactions further break down the rock into smaller particles, which can then be more easily physically weathered. This cycle of physical and chemical weathering processes continuously interact and influence each other in the breakdown of Earth's materials.
