What is the process that carries sediments into rivers?
The process that carries sediments into rivers is called erosion. Erosion occurs when weathering and other factors break down rocks and soil, which are then transported by water, wind, or ice and deposited into rivers.
What is the process of rocks breaking down into smaller pieces explain 2?
One process is physical weathering, where rocks are broken down by mechanical forces like freezing and thawing, or by abrasion from wind and water. Another process is chemical weathering, which involves the breakdown of rocks through chemical reactions such as oxidation or hydrolysis. Both processes contribute to the gradual breakdown of rocks into smaller pieces over time.
What is the source of a sediment?
Sediments are sourced from the weathering and erosion of rocks, minerals, and organic materials on Earth's surface. These materials are transported by water, wind, or ice, and eventually settle and accumulate in layers to form sedimentary rocks.
What is it called when water shapes the rocks flat?
Erosion.
Why do the rocks located in stream beds are smooth?
Rocks in stream beds can become smooth due to a process called abrasion. As water flows over the rocks, it carries sediment and particles that constantly rub against the rocks, wearing them down and making them smooth over time. The friction caused by the movement of water and sediment helps polish the surface of the rocks.

Which part of the stem carries water to the flower?
The tube called xylem carries water up to the flowers
Moving water that carries small particels of soil sand and gravel is called what?
Erosion-is the carrying small particles and other solids. (dirt, leaves, rocks and other particles)
How do rocks get made over again and again?
well its called weathering whenever wind or water makes a mountain smooth and some of the peices go to the ground.then erosion comes and it is the water or wind taking sand silt and sediment (tiny peices of rock and dirt) to a new place.then deposition is dropping the sand silt and sediment and it is forming into a rock and this happens all over again like a cycle or something
What is a structure that carries flowing water called?
A bridge for carrying water is called an aqueduct.
Is the water in a stream called sediment?
No, the solids the water carries is the sediment.
What can you called the water in underground rocks?
Ground water.

What is water in underground rocks called?
This is known as ground water.
What is the special tissue called that carries water to the stem?
xylem
The water in rocks below Earth's surface is called what water?
Ground water
