False. Forces such as weathering and erosion that wear away high points and flatten out the Earth's surface are called destructive forces, not constructive. Constructive forces include processes like volcanism and plate tectonics that build up the Earth's surface.
False. The process that lays down sediment in a new location is deposition, not erosion. Erosion is the process of wearing away and removing sediment from a location.
False. Erosion is the process of wearing away or removing soil and rock. The process of laying down sediment in a new location is deposition.
If one of the choices were "rain" or "wind", then those are good answers.
False. The process that lays down sediment in a new location is deposition, not erosion. Erosion is the process of wearing away or carrying off soil and rock by wind, water, or other natural agents.
Actually, the process of breaking down and wearing away of the Earth's rocks by the atmosphere is called weathering. Oxidation specifically refers to a type of chemical weathering where minerals in rocks react with oxygen.

False, erosion is the gradual wearing down,wearing away of something. In nature it refers to such phenomena as the destructive effect of rivers on their banks, tides on shores, wind and weather on mountains The word is used in metaphor and analogy too. Some members of the Augusta Golf Club regard the admission of women as an erosion of the Club's charter principles
True
The process by which natural forces move weathered rock and soil form one place to another is called (EROSION)
The Grand Canyon was formed by the Colorado River wearing away at the rock over a long period of time. Some estimate in the millions of years.
False
False. More runoff can actually lead to more erosion, as the increased water flow can carry away soil particles and contribute to erosion.
