What else can I help you with?
Different factors that affect the shape of the Earth?
1. WEATHERING a. physical weathering/mechanical weathering b. chemical weathering 2. EROSION a. erosion by water b. erosion by wind c. erosion by ice/glaciers 3. MASS MOVEMENT a. landslide b. mudslide 4. TECTONIC PLATE MOVEMENT
How is earth science related to enviromental science?
They both have to do with nature and the things that affect/change it such as erosion and weathering.
What would not increase the effects of weathering and erosion?
trees and plants protect the earth from weathering and erosion
What is the weathering of the earth's surface called?
The weathering of the Earth's surface is called erosion. Erosion is the process by which soil and rock are removed and transported by wind, water, or ice.
What does erosion and weathering affect?
Erosion and weathering affect the Earth's surface by breaking down rocks and reshaping the landscape over time. They can lead to the wearing away of rock formations, the formation of valleys, and the deposition of sediment in new areas. These processes play a key role in sculpting the Earth's features and shaping its landforms.
Does weathering and erosion affects all rocks on the earths surface?
Yes, weathering and erosion affect all rocks on Earth's surface to some extent. Weathering breaks down rock into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to new locations. These processes are constant and can shape the landscape over time.
What are two ways the earth breaks down?
earthquake earthquake Weathering and Erosion. Weathering is the breaking down of the earth's surface, and erosion is the moving of weathered material.
What is the processes that shape earth's surface?
Erosion by weathering.
What do weathering and erosion do to the earth's surface?
it kinds of destroyes it
Is their any weathering and erosion on Mars?
Weathering on Mars is primarily caused by wind erosion due to its thin atmosphere. The lack of liquid water limits traditional weathering processes seen on Earth. However, there is evidence of ancient river valleys and fluvial features suggesting past erosion by water.
What are the effects of weathering and erosion on earth?
Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller particles, leading to soil formation and altering the landscape. Erosion then transports these particles away, shaping the land and creating landforms like valleys, canyons, and deltas. Both weathering and erosion are natural processes that continuously reshape the Earth's surface over time.
Erosion differs from weathering in that earth material is transported?
True.
