What is rock gardening?
A rock garden is gardening in a rocky environment. Growing plants that are native to mountainous, rocky conditions. You can also arrange rocks, and stones, and other aggregate materials to create an area to grow these different plants in. It is not growing rocks.
How can trees and other plants cause weathering?
they cause it by their roots growing into rocks and breaking up the rocks. After the rocks have been broken up by trees and plants' roots, water and air will wash it away, and eventually dissolve it.
Why do plants can break the rocks?
The root systems of plants can penetrate cracks and, by growing, break the rock. The leaves of trees can accumulate on the forest floor, and decompose over time, producing mild acids, that can attack carbonate rocks.
What soil made from?
there are rocks little ones a materials and made from dead plants and animals.
What will happen if you mix pop rocks and soda?
nothin bad will happen it will just fizz a little :)
Is plants in the crack of rocks a cause of weathering?
Yes, plants growing in cracks of rocks can contribute to weathering. As the roots of the plants grow, they can exert pressure on the surrounding rock, causing it to crack and break apart. Additionally, the growth of plants can lead to the accumulation of organic material that can accelerate chemical weathering processes on the rock surface.
Which group of fungus is found growing on rocks?
Lichens is the group of fungus that is found growing on rocks.
What is on the bottom of the rain forests?
Lots of damp grassy stuff, rocks, little plants - loads of things.
Where do you find the rocks that are inhabited by small plants?
Small plants can be found growing on rocks in a variety of environments, such as mountains, rocky cliffs, riverbeds, and coastal shores. These plants are known as lithophytes and are adapted to survive in harsh conditions by clinging to the surfaces of rocks to access nutrients and water. Look for these unique habitats in rocky areas with good sunlight exposure.
Is mechanical weathering caused by ice and growing roots?
Yes. Mechanical weathering is the breaking of rocks into smaller rocks by physical means. Ice can do this in a process called ice wedging or frost wedging. Plants can do this by their roots growing into cracks in the rocks.
How rocks weathered in plants?
plants can cause the weatering of the rock plants may grow on the rock the minerals of rocks are used by the plants
Which is the slow growing plants?
Though really in a separate category, you may consider lichens to be among the slowest-growing of plants. These are actually a symbiont of a fungi and an algae. Some of the slowest-growing ones are found in the Antarctic, where they are found inside rocks, and that habitat, coupled with the temperature, means these are extremely slow in growth.
