How does weathering and erosion shape earths surface?
Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to new locations. Over time, these processes can create features like valleys, canyons, and coastlines, shaping the Earth's surface.
Buried rock is exposed at earths surface by the combination of which two processes?
The combination of weathering and erosion exposes buried rock at the Earth's surface. Weathering breaks down the rock into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces away, eventually revealing the rock at the surface.
What parts of the Rock cycle occur at the Earth's surface?
Mostly the sedimentary part which involves the process of weathering, and diagenesis occurs at the earths surface.
Processes that break down rock at earths surface?
Weathering and erosion processes break down rock at Earth's surface. Weathering involves physical breakdown (mechanical weathering) and chemical breakdown (chemical weathering) of rocks, while erosion involves the transportation of the broken-down rock particles by agents like water, wind, or ice. Over time, these processes shape the Earth's surface and contribute to the formation of landforms.
Any rock exposed at Earths surface will undergo?
Weathering and erosion, which break down the rock into smaller pieces and transport them away. This process is driven by factors such as wind, water, and temperature changes, and eventually leads to the formation of sedimentary rocks.
What are the process that cause earths surface to wear down?
Weathering and erosion
How does weathering and erosion shape earths surface?

What is a physical process that mainly occurs above the earths surface?
Erosion, weathering
When uplifted rocks reach the earths weathering erosion and deposition begin?
when uplifted rocks reach the Earth's Surface, weathering, erosion, and deposition begin
How does weathering and erosion effect earths surface?
well, lets see. weathering and ersion are both destructive fources, there for, they destroy Earth's surface.
When rocks are subjected to weathering and erosion at the earths surface what type of rock do they become?
they die
Is the weathering of the earths surface known as corrosion?
No, it's known as erosion. Corrosion is the weathering of things like metal and glass.
Can you describe the process that wears down and builds up the earths surface?
weathering, erosion, deposition, and uplift
What are two ways that rocks on the earths surface are changed?
1) physical erosion. 2) chemical weathering.
What happens to rocks above earths surface over the years?
Rocks get eaten away by weathering and erosion
How does ice erosion effect Earth's surface?
It doesnt effect the earths surface, it affects the the earth surface by expanding cracks in the ground.
Buried rock is exposed at earths surface by the combination of which two processes?
The combination of weathering and erosion exposes buried rock at the Earth's surface. Weathering breaks down the rock into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces away, eventually revealing the rock at the surface.
