What_happens_when_rocks_break_apart_and_change
Plants can break rocks apart using their roots. As roots grow, they can exert pressure on rocks, causing them to crack or break over time. The process of roots breaking apart rocks is known as biological weathering.
They erode by the effects of wind and water
Rocks and mountains break apart due to various factors such as weathering, erosion, and tectonic activity. Weathering breaks down rocks through physical processes like freezing and thawing, while erosion removes the broken rock material. Tectonic activity like earthquakes and volcanic eruptions can cause rocks to break apart as well.
Ice can change the shape of rocks through a process called frost wedging. Water seeps into cracks in the rocks and freezes, expanding as it turns into ice. This expansion exerts pressure on the rock, causing it to crack and break apart over time.
The point below the surface where rocks break and move apart is called the focus or hypocenter. This is the point within the Earth's crust where the energy from an earthquake is released, causing the rocks to break and move along a fault line.
erosion can break rocks apart, weathering can also break rocks apart
All rocks have cracks in them. If water fills the cracks and freezes, it expands and pushes the rock apart.
Break apart
Plants roots are surprisingly strong. They can break into rocks with there roots and break them apart.
Yes, "breaking apart" is the progressive form of the particle verb "break apart". E.g., "He is breaking apart the rocks" or "The rocks are breaking apart".
No they will sink or break apart
Yes.

Only people do that.
Rocks break apart from force and heat. Water, freezing, thawing, and wind break rocks into smaller portions.
