What is the driving force behind all agents of erosion?

Gravity is the driving force behind all agents of erosion. If there is no gravity, rain will not fall and running water will not happen. Similarly, wind, glacial activity and waves are driven by gravity.


What is the underlying force behind all erosion?

The underlying force behind all erosion is gravity. Gravity causes materials to be pulled downward, which can result in the movement of sediment and rocks through processes such as water flow, wind, or ice movement.


What are the five nature agent erosion What is the driving force behind all of these agent of erosion?

The five agents of erosion in nature are water, wind, ice, gravity, and living organisms. The driving force behind all of these agents of erosion is the movement of Earth's materials caused by energy from the sun, gravity, and Earth's internal heat.


Which characteristic is common to all agents of erosion?

The common characteristic of all agents of erosion is their ability to transport and remove particles or materials from one place to another through processes such as weathering, transportation, and deposition.


Is gravity a force of erosion?

Gravity is an agent of erosion... I'm not quite sure if it is erosion. In the science textbook I have right in front of me it says and I quote, "Gravity, running water, waves, wind and glaciers are all causes, or agents, of erosion. Although it says it's an agent of erosion it doesn't say it is erosion. An agent is a "cause" of something.

How is gravity differ from all other agents of erosion?

no erosion


What is the underlying cause of all erosion?

Its gravity.


What is one characteristic that all agents of erosion have in common?

One characteristic that all agents of erosion have in common is movement. Water, wind, ice, and waves all cause erosion by creating friction from movement against the materials that become eroded.

What are 3 agents on earth that cause erosion?

Rain, wind and sea. basically all of the eliments.


What is a destructive force on Earth?

weathering and erosion that is all i know


What is the Major force behind all types of erosion?

Water is the major force behind all types of erosion. It can wear away rock and soil through processes such as river erosion, coastal erosion, and glacial erosion. Wind and ice are also important erosional forces, especially in arid and cold climates.
