Both mechanical weathering (physically breaking rock into smaller pieces) and chemical weathering (chemically changing and even dissolving rock) result in rock layers being broken down. Water can be involved in both - freezing and then thawing lead to mechanical breaking by cracking rock, dissolving can lead to leaching chemical components of the rock, possibly weakening it and leading to pitting of the surface, for example.
Also they both can break down some rocks faster than other rocks.
They both are ways of breaking down rock, mechanical weathering physically breaks down rock and chemical weathering breaks down rock through chemical changes. An example of mechanical weathering is that it breaks down rock by animal actions, abrasion, freezing and thawing, release of pressure, and plant growth. And chemical weathering breaks down rock by the action of water, oxygen, carbon dioxide, living organisms, and acid rain.
They both break down food to get nutrients, water, glucose(sugar), ect. to the body's cells
Both reactions can cause burning, a fiery reaction, and or large amounts of pain.
One similarity is that they both result in the breaking down of rocks (which is required for them to be classified as weathering).
Weathering is weathering, no matter how it occurs. Both chemical and biological weathering wear down rock. They simply go about it in different ways.
they both have mebranes and cell walls
well you know.......... why dont u tell me
Weathering is the physical wearing down of rock or the earth, and erosion is the movement of the particles loosened by weathering. Weathering can be either mechanical or chemical. For chemical weathering to occur, a chemical reaction needs to occur in the ground, causing it to wear away. Mechanical weathering can include: freezing and thawing (water gets into ground and when it freezes it pushes the rock out), abrasion (force rubbing up against surface, such as water, which is why rocks in a river are so smooth), thermal weathering (rocks expand in very hot climates), salt wedges (rain with salt water in it falls into cracks between a rock and when the water dissolves, the salt is left behind pushing the rock outward), and animal activity (burrowing in the ground). Erosion would take place after one of these processes had, and it carries the weathered particles away by wind or water.
They both are different kinds of air.
The differences are that mechanical weathering breaks rocks into little pieces.. Chemical weathering not only breaks the rock but dissolves it.
In chemical weathering, there is a chemical reaction that causes weathering. Mechanical weathering is caused by fire, abrasions of water along a surface, animals, or freezing and thawing.

suck a dick ;)
they both break down stuff into fragments.p.s : this is the right answer.
Chemical weathering is the breaking down of a rock on a minute level, like the solution of minerals. Mechanical weathering is the breaking down of a rock, sometimes causing a crack through an entire strata, resulting in mass movement; but mostly mechanical weathering is as a result of a factor which causes the rock to physically separate.

biological weathering is when plants grow inside of a rock and break it apart, mechanical weathering is when rocks are broken apart by a force
Physical weathering is breaking down of rocks by weather that does not change their chemical components. Chemical weathering is weathering that breaks rocks down by a chemical change.
