Erosion. Weathering is the physical and chemical breakdown of rock. Erosion is the removal of of weathered sediments. Transport is the movement of weathered sediments (say in suspension in river water) during the erosion process. Deposition is the laying down of the transported sediments in a new location.
Weathering occurs when rocks are broken down into smaller particles but not moved When natural forces begin to move weathered particles, called sediments, we say that they are being eroded, or undergoing erosion. Most of earth's erosion is done by flowing water in streams which carry tons of sediment to the oceans each day Deposition occurs when movement slows or stops and suspended sediments are dropped.
Yes
Sediments move around due to the combination of the force of gravity acting on the sediment and or the movement of the fluid in which the sediment is entrained. Movement may either be made by air, water or ice. Sediment movement in fluids occurs in water bodies as a result of water currents and tides.

Techtonic plate movement, weathering and degradation and human intervention (farming, civilisation).
uhhh i think its weathering??

Erosion is the term for the wearing away of land surfaces by weathering and transportation of particles from one place to another.
Chemical weathering is the breaking down of a rock on a minute level, like the solution of minerals. Mechanical weathering is the breaking down of a rock, sometimes causing a crack through an entire strata, resulting in mass movement; but mostly mechanical weathering is as a result of a factor which causes the rock to physically separate.

Erosion.
Yes
Sand movement is erosion because it deals with the transportation of already weathered materials. However it is worth noting that the movement of sand can also cause weathering as the moving sand particles can act as an abrasive causing mechanical weathering.
erosion reqiures movement and weathering doesnt
