There are many important agents of erosion , but water would be the largest factor . It falls as rain, then flows across the earth , and the oceans wash endlesly against the continents, freezes and thaws in the colder climates . All these contribute to the breakdown of rock and soil .

∙ 15y agoWater is the most important erosional agent and erodes most commonly as running water in streams. However, water in all its forms is erosional. Raindrops create splash erosion that moves tiny particles of soil. Water collecting on the surface of the soil collects as it moves towards tiny rivulets and streams and creates sheet erosion.

Which agent of erosion is responsible for the most erosion?
Wind is the weakest agent of erosion
What is the most effective agent of erosion in deserts?
wind.
Groundwater is the most effective erosion agent in what areas?
Groundwater erosion occurs most often in areas with an abundance of limestone and rainfall. This erosion can create large cavities and caves.
Is wind the strongest agent of erosion?
Wind speed is certainly a contributing factor to the amount of erosion. The higher the wind speed, the more force it has against objects. This means that it can push deeper into the soil to loosen and blow away more soil particles than a milder wind.
An important agent of erosion that exerts a downward force on slopes is running water true or false?
true, are you doing the worksheet mr.e gave?
What is the most most important agent of erosion?
the most important agent of erosion is water.
Are streams the most important agent of erosion on earth?
Streams
Is the most effective agent of erosion.?
Gravity induced moving water is the most effective agent of erosion.
Which agent of erosion is responsible for the most erosion?
Wind is the weakest agent of erosion
What is the erosion most powerful agent?
Gravity.
What is the agent of erosion that is most destructive?
water
Is it true or false that the most important agent of erosion is called?
If one of the choices were "rain" or "wind", then those are good answers.
What is the greatest agent of erosion?
The strongest agent or erosion are water,man and animals. Yes, Maybe but the weakest agent of erosion is wind itself
The most important erosional agent on earth is?
The major agent of erosion on earthes surface is water running downhill
Where is wind the most active agent of erosion?
Abrasion
What is the most effective agent of erosion in deserts?
wind.
What is the most effective agent of erosion?
Most sediments are carried by water, with an assist from gravity, so gravity induced moving water is the most effective agent of erosion.
