The type of erosion that causes weathered cliffs is typically a combination of mechanical weathering (breaking down of rocks through physical processes like freeze-thaw cycles and abrasion) and chemical weathering (breaking down of rocks through chemical reactions with water and air). Over time, these processes weaken the rock and lead to the formation of cliffs.
Ice is a type of erosion because when ice is melted caused by the weather and anything weathered into something else is the process of erosion. Hope I helped!!
Sandstone is the sedimentary rock formed from weathered rock.
Glaciers
When a wave impacts a cliff face, air is forced into cracks under high pressure, widening them. Over long periods of time, the growing cracks destabilise the cliff and fragments of rock break off of it

A sea cave is a type of cave formed by erosion through the waves in the ocean. The erosion normally starts at a fault in a sea cliff. Sea caves are found throughout the world, forming on coastlines right now.

Abrasion
Glaciers
Any type of rock can be weathered. However, as the Earth started off in a molten state, the first rocks to be weathered must have been formed from magma and were therefore igneous rocks.
