Best Answer

Weathering is the breakdown of rocks into smaller fragments or ion in solution. Erosion is the removal of that material away from its source.

Weathering and erosion are responsible for the unique landforms on Earth's surface. Every "cool" vacation spot out west was most likely created by weathering and erosion. Bryce National Park, Grand Canyon, Glacier National Park, etc.

In order for erosion to occur, you must have a transporting medium, e.g. water, wind, glacial ice.
