How could erosion and deposition affect on a small rock on a river bank that has been sweptinto the river?
Erosion could wear down the rock's surface, causing it to become smoother and potentially reducing its size. Deposition could lead to sediment accumulating around the rock, potentially burying it partially or fully over time. Overall, the rock may undergo changes in shape, size, and position due to the combined effects of erosion and deposition in the river environment.

What are two possible explanations for a missing layer in a rock layer sequence?
A missing layer in a rock layer sequence could be due to erosion or non-deposition. Erosion may have removed the layer after it was formed, while non-deposition indicates that the layer was never deposited in that particular location.
Suppose you have a lump of sugar water a spray bottle and a cake pan. describe how you could use those items to construct a working model of erosion and deposition.?
You can spray the sugar water onto the cake pan to represent rainfall, which causes erosion by carrying particles away. As the water evaporates, it leaves behind the sugar particles, simulating deposition. Over time, this process showcases how erosion shapes the land by moving particles and how deposition builds up new landforms.
What pathway in the rock cycle might rock take next if it is subjected to uplift?
If a rock is subjected to uplift, it may undergo weathering and erosion, leading to deposition and formation of sedimentary rock. Alternatively, it could be subjected to heat and pressure, metamorphosing into metamorphic rock.
Which change would most likely cause soil layer X to increase in thickness?
An increase in deposition of sediments on top of soil layer X would most likely cause it to increase in thickness. This could result from increased erosion of nearby areas, deposition of material carried by water or wind, or human activities such as construction or mining that disturb the land surface.
What is the difference between erosion and agents of erosion?
Erosion is the result of something that is still not controlled. Agents of erosion when we are talking about soil, for instance, could be the wind and water or even lack of vegetation, poor soil.Definition of erosion by 'the free dictionary" :1. The process of eroding or the condition of being eroded: erosion of the beach; progressive erosion of confidence in our legal system; erosion of the value of the dollar abroad.2. The group of natural processes, including weathering, dissolution, abrasion, corrosion, and transportation, by which material is worn away from the earth's surface.You can notice that "erosion' has two main meanings.
What deposition can gradually fill up depressions in earths surface?
Deposition by erosion , could fill a depression , the same erosion creates depressions.
How do erosion and deposition shape caves?
I could tell that when erosion happens it causes water that could make a new shape. I think that it will hekp you guys
Would rain cause erosion or desposition?
It could cause both... Rain causes erosion when the water is heavy... and the deposition part... deposition is when rocks are compacted .. .. what im only a 5th grader
What are two ways to increase the amount of erosion or deposition in a stream-table experiment?
You could increase the amount of water flow, or increase the angle of water flow to increase the amount of erosion. Both will increase the amount of the resultant deposition.
What processes shape the surface of the land?
Water, Wind, Wave, and Glacier Erosion as well as Mass Movement (or Erosion, Deposition, and Weathering)

What wears down and builds up earths surface?
Weathering, erosion, and deposition. Earth's surface could also be built up by volcanism.

How could a rock or a mineral become sediment?
It is through erosion that rocks and minerals become sediments. The weathering and transportation of particles of rock results in the deposition of sediments. We know that wind, water, ice, gravity and some other factors are behind erosion.
How does erosion affect others?
you could die or be badly injured * your land or house could be swept away/destroyed. your crops/farm/livelihood could be destroyed.
How the type of shoreline could affect the type of sediments you might find there?
once it causes erosion. and when its starts decaying too
