Sediments eroded from mountainsides and transported in streams are an example of the conservation of?
Matter
When do steams erode sediments?
Streams constantly erode sediments. Anytime the water is moving, sediments are being eroded
What happens to soil and rocks that have been eroded?
Eroded soil washes away and winds up in rivers, and eventually in lakes or oceans where is becomes sediment at the bottom. Rocks can be eroded into sand. Generally, they remain part of the soil, until the soil is eroded.
How does a speck of sand turn into a sedimentary rock?
The grain of sand becomes a sedimentary rock when it gets erosion and is deposited on the bottom of a body of water. Then the eroded sand builds up and becomes a sedimentary rock if there is enough eroded sand.
When a rock is weathered or eroded it becomes what kind of rocks?

Where to meandering streams occur?
On the outer bank (at the tip of the meander)
How does soil erosion prevented?
wen levelling is done the field becomes levelled so the soil becomes strong all together down the soil does not get eroded

What happens to earth's crust when mountains are eroded?
The Earth's crust becomes weathered, and this can affect the landscape over time.
Arroyo wadi and Nullah are terms used in different parts of the world for the same physical feature. What is the feature?
canyons, often dry, eroded by streams or rivers,
How water becomes impure?
As it flows above and underground, it comes into contact with rocks and soil, where minerals are eroded of the rocks or soil and dissolve into the water.
Is there a pathway through the rock cycle in which magma becomes sedimentary rock?
Yes, when igneous rock (magma) has solidified and then gets subsequently eroded, the eroded particules can get blown or washed into rivers for example, and then can form sedimentary rocks further down the chain.
