The answer is Waterfalls because it is leaving harder rock for the water to spill over.
Also a gorge, a sink hole, and a cave.

Is it possible for a stream to be neither eroding nor depositing material When would this occur?
Only if the rock it is over is incredibly durable. I'm not sure there exists rock that won't slowly erode when water runs over it quickly enough.
Is the petra a landform?
That is a very good question. If when you say petra you are talking about the narrow gorge or canyon of sandstone walls then yes petra is a landform. The word petra means rock. If you are talking about the tombs and architectural structures like El Dier that were carved out of the rock by ancient civilizations then no petra is not a landform. Landforms are created by various geological forces not by humans.
Why does ancient Rome land look like a boot kicking a rock?
That is how the landform panned out as the sea rose.
What makes an aquifer able to store water?
Water infiltrates the ground and seeps downwards through the soil. When it meets a layer of rock, then (i) if the rock is highly permeable by nature (sandstones, etc) the water will saturate the rock. It will also saturate highly fractured rock, so it's possible for igneous rock such as granite to form an aquifer. The best combination is highly fractured, permeable rock. (ii) if the rock is impermeable (unfractured granite, for example) the water will "pool" on top of this - it is a confining aquifer. So we can get permeable rock layers (saturated with water) sitting above impermeable layers (that prevent the water sinking any lower) , and this is how we get groundwater. It's possible for groundwater to flow, and a lot of groundwater eventually flows into streams and rivers.
What are the events in the formation of an evaporite?
An evaporite is a sedimentary rock that is soluble in water. It occurs where there is a lake that evaporates more quickly than rain or river water enters the lake. The water evaporates and the rich mineral sediment becomes a rock or a crystal.
If waves erode the soft rock along the base of a steep coast the result may eventually be what kind of landform?
The landform is called a wave-cut cliff, or wave-cut platform, where a flat rock area extends into the sea, at or near the water level.
How can caves form by erosion?
The water bashes against the rock and throws little rocks at the big rock eroding away the big rock causing a cave x
What is the largest landform made of rock?
The largest of all landforms
What dug the Grand Canyon?
a stream eroding the rock
What does wind eroding rock deposit?
it deposits dust and other molecule found in the rock

What do sand and boulders have in common?
They are both eroding rock particles.
How does ice contribute to physical weathering?
It falls in the cracks as water and freezes. As it freezes, it expands, eroding what ever it fell into, whether its concrete or rock.
How is a landform made?
there made of rock
How does gravity relate to a stream's ability to erode and deposit materials?
The gradient of a stream effects the energy as it has eroding soil and rock. This happens because depending on the pressure of the water flow, it can erode soil and rock.
How does Niagara falls retreat?
Niagara Falls retreats as water flows it picks up loose rock, sand and dirt; eroding the surface back upstream.
