The process called weathering is responsible for the breaking up and wearing away of the Earth's rocks. The broken up rocks are then carried away by the process of erosion.
Weathering is the proces that breaks down rock and other substances on Earth.

mechanical weathering
Weathering refers to the slow process that breaks rocks into smaller fragments. Weathered pieces of rock are moved from one place to another during erosion.
It is actually called weathering, but if your talking about the process of rocks breaking down into smaller pieces by physical means it is called Mechanical Weathering, by chemical means it is called Chemical Weathering.
weathering breaks down rocks, which makes the sediment easy to be transported
Weathering and erosion breaks rocks into smaller pieces.

erosion
Soil is formed from rocks. When weathering breaks down rocks into smaller and smaller pieces you will get soil. This process takes thousands and thousands of years.
Rocks erode from mainly wind and water over time.
weather changes occur in a slow process. weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces.
Weathering.
Precipitation washes the minerals and compounds off the rocks and higher ground onto plants.Explanation:(Through the process of weathering, water breaks down rocks into smaller pieces. Through the process of erosion, the smaller pieces of minerals and compounds are washed away from the rock to the soil where plants absorb them for nourishment.)
