Want this question answered?
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
No it doesn't because weathering causes rocks to break down not build up.
Living things move sediments and soil from one place to another. Plants break down things with mechanical weathering.
The roots of plants and trees can face joints and cracks in rocks thus causing it to break up into smaller fragments
The water get to cold and freezes the rock fomring them to not move at all.

Mechanical weathering occurs when an applied force causes rock to break.

Weathering can break away less resistant parts of the rock and leave behind the more resistant parts.

The change undergone is physical only. The definition of weathering is the wearing away of rocks in situ. Weathering causes the rocks to "break down", but mostly not to chemically change (the exception being limestone in acid rain).
The roots of plants and trees can face joints and cracks in rocks thus causing it to break up into smaller fragments
The trees' roots break through rock as they move through the soil.
Some of the physical processes that can produce fertile soil are the various types of rock weathering. There is mechanical weathering and thermal weathering that causes rocks to break down into soil particles.

Any form of mechanical weathering causes rock to break into smaller pieces. A landslide will definitely cause rock to break. Meteor impact, plant root growth, ice wedging, and the movement of animals will also cause weathering.
Weathering breaks up the rock by rubbing parts of old rocks against it, this causes the rock to break up into tiny pieces and it rubs agaist other rocks. it continues on for a looong time... however it take a long time for it to break up the rock. hope it helps!!
