Are rocks formed when magma erodes?
no only igneous rocks are formed when magma cools not erodes
How does the tide influence the coast line?
it affects it by erosion and erodes rocks
Abrasion and plucking involves what part of glacier?
The base of the glacier, where it is in contact with the rocks beneath it.
What can happen when the glacier melts in a cirque?
the glacier dropped small rocks as it melted. An erratic is a large boulder left behind after a glacier has melted

Rocks that erodes to expose layering is?
Rock that erodes to expose layering is known as sedimentary rock.
Does white vinegar affect rocks?
It erodes them.
What is moraine erosion or deposition?
moraine is a sedimentary rock. All sedimentary rocks are formed from the deposition of eroded sediments, pebbles, boulders... etc. Morain is a glacial deposit. As a glacier moves over the land it erodes and transports bits of rock. When the glacier melts it deposits these bits of rock to form morain.
How can glaciers erode rocks?
The glacier can carry rocks. The moving of the glacier.
What does the energy of waves do to rocks?
It erodes them to be a different size and shape.
Does mountain erode?
Yes;because rocks erodes and rock are there.
How does the hydrosphere interact with the other spheres?
The hydrosphere interacts with the other spheres: Atmosphere: If the temperature increases or decreases, the water could freeze or dry up Lithosphere: Rocks could crack and break due to freezing Biosphere: Land and water could disappear
What can be formed when a river erodes rocks from an area?
A canyon can be formed where the water eats away on the rocks.
How does the glacier erode the land beneath it?
A glacier erodes by the following processes:Plucking: the physical plucking of rocks from the rock face beneath it by freezing around it, then moving forwards, pulling it with it.Abrasion: the scraping of a rock entrained within the glacier against the rock faceRemoval: rocks can be entrained within the glacier, at the sides, in the middle or at the bottom and are transported by the processes listed belowDo not confuse the following with erosion:Rotational slip: related to erosion closely. This is where the corrie glacier rotates round in the hollow, carving it out, but the actual erosion is done by the processes aboveGlacial movement: a glacier moves by four processes: rotational slip, basal slippage, internal deformation and due to gravity. This is not the physical erosion of the rock, but just the way in which the glacier moves.
What is in sodium chloride that erodes rocks?
The ion chloride has a corrosive effect.
Water erodes rock and deposits sediments to form?
sedimentary rocks :)
