same question i have
true
The process that breaks down granite into sediments is weathering.
That would be the process of erosion or weathering. This is when water beats against rocks through rain or waves, and breaks them down into sediment.
the formation of a sedimentary rock is first weathering. Weathering breaks into smaller piece's. Next is erosion. Erosion is when it moves the sediment to different places. Deposition after that and what deposition do is forming a sedimentary rock when it rains, snow ect. It slows the rock formation down and less energy and sediment will be on the sedimentary rock. Last it is compaction. and that squeezs the sedimentary rock together
Weathering, friction from soil motion, decay from time, water infiltration, insects and animals.
yes. When calcite minerals erode into water they raise the pH by becoming CO3(-) this makes it hard for some fish to live.

erosion and deposition
its called weathering, or erosion
Granite has no cleavage, it breaks off in crystals.
yes. it breaks them. it breaks the sediment

Wind and water.
Saltation is the skipping, bouncing, creeping, rolling, or sliding of particles by the wind or the water. Saltation occurs when loose particles are picked up and transported a certain distance via the wind or water.
it turns into sediment
It breaks down sediment rock
