Running water causes erosion of soil and rocks. This is done by the friction between the constant movement of the water and the still rock or soil. Rock erodes much slower but will eventually wear away. Soil is washed away by running water. The slow down the erosion, grasses can be planted in the soil to help hold it in place.
It slowly washes away little particles of rock. Over time, even though the water washes away tiny amounts of rock, the rock gets smaller and smaller until the water has washed away the whole rock.
Erosion is the movement of solids. Moving water, such as streams, runoff, and rivers, picks up rocks and moves them somewhere else. Water causes weathering by having other rocks and abrasive materials rub against rocks.

Flowing water has the capacity to pick up soil and move it. Small streams flow into larger streams, carry soil with them. Larger streams flow into rivers which flow into larger rivers, and eventually these rivers reach the sea. Large amounts of soil are deposited in river deltas, which are more or less triangular shaped regions where rivers run into the sea. Meanwhile, soil is continually lost from the upstream regions.
Running water can cause abrasion by moving rocks and making them hit each other.
it breaks down the rocks, physical weathering
The water moving fast will spread the land. The water will carry away all of the minerals so it becomes deeper and wider.
Running water can overcome the force of gravity on sediment and move it from one place to another place; the definition of erosion.
Yes
water can cause abrasion as rock's bumpinto and scrape each other as they are moved by waves and rivers.
To know which of the following is a source of chemical weathering the abrasion of running water someone needs to know what the choices are. It says which of the following, but does not say what the following is. This is needed to know the answer.
water, air, and gravity (rocks scrape against each other by the cause of gravity.)
Stormy weather.

No, most desert land forms are cause by the action of water.

Wind-carried sand polish rock and cause a little abrasion.
yes
yes
False. It was water abrasion
