Water from rainfall and runoff seep into the ground, so it fills the spaces between particles of soil and rock. The water freezes and gets bigger, (expands) and it causes the lifting of rock and soil. ☺
What else can I help you with?
Describe the direction in which soil and rock particles rise?
Soil and rock particles rise due to the process of soil creep, caused by the expansion and contraction of soil particles with changes in temperature, or by the action of frost heaving where water freezes and expands, pushing particles upwards.
What direction do soil and rock particles rise?
Soil and rock particles typically rise upwards due to the process of erosion caused by actions such as wind, water, or ice. The particles are carried away from their original location and can be deposited in new areas, contributing to the movement of sediment across the Earth's surface.

How does the size of rock particles in soil affect the amount of water it can hold?
the answer to this question is that Soil with smaller particles can hold more water when Soil with larger rock particles can hold less water.....
What three types of weathered rock particles found in soil?
Clay, silt, and sand are the three types of weathered rock particles found in soil.
By which materiel soil is formed?
soil is made up of weathered rock particles
What causes soil and rock particles to fall?
errosion
What particles are in soil?
Soil particles typically include sand, silt, and clay. Sand particles are the largest, silt particles are medium-sized, and clay particles are the smallest. Organic matter, water, and air pockets also make up soil composition.
What causes the soil and rock particles to fall?
Soil and rock particles fall due to gravity, which pulls them downwards towards the Earth's surface. Factors such as erosion, weathering, and human activities can also lead to the movement of soil and rock particles.
Which kind of soil has the smallest rock particles?
Clay soil has the smallest rock particles compared to sand and silt. Clay particles are less than 0.002 mm in diameter, giving the soil its fine texture and ability to hold water well.
What fills spaces between particles of rock and soil?
its groundwater!
What is soil produced by?
Mainly by the weathering and erosion of particles of rock.
