What else can I help you with?
Sedimentary rocks that are made up of large pebbles and stones have a coarse-grained?
texture. These rocks, known as conglomerates, form when the sediments are transported and deposited by water or gravity, resulting in a mix of different sized particles. The large pebbles and stones in conglomerates give them a visibly coarse appearance.
What is it called when glaciers pick up large rocks and carry them away?
It could be two things, either plucking, a form of glacial erosion where weak rock is moved or erratics, which is a form of glacial deposition in which rocks, even car size, are transported by glacial ice into a region with different bedrock.
Which rock material was most likely transported to its present location by a glacier?
Boulders and rock debris were most likely transported by a glacier to their present location. Glaciers can carry large boulders and rocks across long distances and then deposit them when the glacier melts, leaving behind evidence of their movement.
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.
Why As rocks erode from Earth's surface they are replaced by the process of .?
Weathering. This process involves the physical or chemical breakdown of rocks into smaller particles that can then be transported and deposited elsewhere, ultimately leading to the replacement of eroded rocks.
What occurs in wind erosion A. Wet soil is transported away. B. Dry soil is transported away C. Small rocks are left behind. D. Large rocks are left behind.?
Large rocks are left behind and dry soil is transported away. B- Dry soil is transported away in a process called deflation
How can large rock be transported in a river?
Large boulders and smaller rocks can be carried by a river. When rocks and sediment are displaced, it's called erosion.
What do transported rocks look like?
We just dont know.....

What is the large particles carried by the water?
Large particles carried by water include sediment, rocks, debris, and organic matter. These particles can be transported by the flow of water in rivers, streams, and oceans, contributing to erosion and sedimentation processes.
What kind of rock is formed when loose rocks and dirt are transported and re-deposited?
sedimentary rocks are formed
What are the disadvantages of rip- rap?
it costs alot for the rocks to be transported
When rocks and soil are moved by a river to other places it is known as what?
transportation/transported
How are goods and services transported in Mexico?
Services cannot be transported. That being said, most goods are transported by either truck or rail transport. Export goods also can include large oil tankers or large container ships.
