What is the largest cause in weathering and erosion?
Moving water is the biggest cause of weathering and erosion.
Can weathering cause the building process of mountains?
Weathering is the cause of mountains wearing away.
Do plant roots cause mechanical weathering?
Plant roots cause Biological weathering which is indeed Mechanical in its nature. Animals burrowing is also a cause of Biological weathering.
How many main causes cause mechanical weathering?
4 main causes cause mechanical weathering!
Can earthworms cause physical weathering?
not really.
How do earthworms aid in weathering?
The answer is that earthworms help to build soil and fertilize
In what way can an animal cause mechanical weathering?
Earthworms tunnel through the soil and move soil particles around. The motion breaks some particles into smaller particles. It also exposes fresh surfaces to continued weathering.

How can biological weathering cause problems?
Weathering of any kind can sometimes cause problems, like erosion of topsoil. Biological weathering, where the weathering is caused by living things (plants and animals), can cause the same kinds of problems.
