If the weathering process did not exist landscapes would stay the same the rock process would not occur either and important mineral resources would soon seen to be scarce and run out. This process has to happen otherwise there would be no vital resources for the earth to erode.

If the seminal vesciles stopped working What would happen to the sperm?

If the seminal vesicles stopped working, sperm would have reduced seminal fluid for nourishment and protection. This can impair sperm motility and survival, potentially affecting fertility and the ability to successfully fertilize an egg.


What would happen if ribosomes suddenly stopped working in a cell?

If ribosomes suddenly stopped working in a cell, protein synthesis would be disrupted, leading to a decrease in the production of essential proteins. This could result in cell dysfunction, impaired growth, and ultimately cell death.


What would happen if the nervous system suddenly stopped working?

If the nervous system suddenly stopped working, the body would not be able to send or receive signals, leading to paralysis, loss of sensation, and inability to control bodily functions. This could result in serious health complications and potentially be life-threatening.


What would happen if the reproductive system stopped working?

If the reproductive system stopped working, a person would be unable to conceive and bear children. This can have emotional and psychological impacts, as well as implications for relationships and family planning choices. In some cases, medical interventions such as fertility treatments may be an option.


If All of the organelles work together to keep the cell functioning What do you think would happen if the mitochondria stopped functioning correctly what about the Ribosomes?

If the mitochondria stopped functioning correctly, the cell would not be able to generate sufficient energy in the form of ATP through cellular respiration, leading to a decrease in overall cell function. If the ribosomes stopped functioning, protein synthesis would be impaired, affecting the production of essential proteins needed for various cell processes and functions.

What would happen if erosion and mass weathering stopped?

if erosion stopped then the landscape would stay the same, the rock cycle would not occur. Mineral resources would be scarce and soon run out.


Why does weathering have to happen for erosion to happen?

Weathering is the process of rocks breaking down. Erosion is what moves the broken down rocks. There are four factors wind, moving water, wind, and gravity. Without weathering there would would be nothing for the Earth to erode.


What would not increase the effects of weathering and erosion?

trees and plants protect the earth from weathering and erosion


How would a beach change if rocks stopped weathering?

If rocks stopped weathering, the process responsible for their breakdown and erosion would cease. This would result in a buildup of larger rocks on the beach, giving it a more rugged and rocky appearance. The beach may also experience less sand production over time since weathering is a key factor in creating sand from rocks.


Why is Weathering important to erosion?

weathering breaks down rocks, which makes the sediment easy to be transported


Why must weathering happen before erosion?

In 'normal' situations, a body of rock must first be broken down into smaller units before it is able to be transported by wind, water, and ice. The breaking down of rock is called weathering, and the transportation of weathered rock is called erosion.


Are weathering and erosion the same process?

Both chemical and mechanical weathering breakdown a rock into particles, just in diffrent ways. Mechanical weathering is the physical weathering in which a rock is broken down into particles. Chemical weathering is the weathering in which rocks are disolved, decomposed , or loosend to change the minerals in the rock.


What would happen if a erosion did not occur in the rock cycle?

If erosion did not occur in the rock cycle, weathering and transportation of rock material would not happen efficiently, leading to a lack of sediment deposition and formation of new sedimentary rocks. This would disrupt the cycle, affecting the overall geologic processes and the formation of different types of rocks.


What are careers for weathering and erosion?

The agents for weathering and erosion are natural. I know off no career that would replace these natural agents. However, if you mean careers understanding or preventing them then Geology, Geography, farming and Engineering would be your choices.


When and where would you look for signs of weathering erosion or deposition in your community?

in bricks rocks


Why does weathering have to occur first then erosion?

Weathering breaks materialn down and erosion transports that broken down material. As an example, weathering breaks a mountain down into smaller rocks, and those smaller rocks can be transported by streams (erosion), but the streams cannot simply move the whole mountain.


Which layer of the soil profile would be affected the most by weathering and erosion?

Topsoil
