How do scientist tell one minerals apart?
You can tell if a mineral is a mineral by its characteristics: *color *luster *streak *hardness *cleavage/fracture *crystalline structure
How do plants cause chemical weathering of rock?
In chemical weathering mosses and linches have been found to grow on rocks and release chemicals that dissolve minerals from rocks. roots from plants are able to invade cracks with in rocks and increase the size of the cracks. There are a number of trees and other plants that release acidic chemicals which can cause weathering of the rocks, minerals, and soil around them. Plants also can have an affect on the way water weathers rocks and soils, they can channel water in specific directions that cause greater weathering or they can lessen the impact of rain falling on the ground. They also affect wind speed and direction near the surface of the ground having an effect on weathering in arid regions of the world. If you have any other questions about weathering go to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weathering
Explain who proposed the continental drift theory?
Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift at the beginning of the 20th century.

What happens when paticles of a material move farther apart?

What happens first rocks break apart or water fills tiny cracks in rocks and freezes or ice pushes against rocks?
All rocks have cracks in them. If water fills the cracks and freezes, it expands and pushes the rock apart.
What enters cracks in rocks and forces them apart?
Water can do this if it freezes
What is the system of cracks that form where the seafloor is spreading apart called?
The system of cracks that form where the seafloor is spreading apart is called a mid-ocean ridge. These cracks are also known as rift zones and are where magma rises to create new oceanic crust.
How much time was there between the twin towers crashing and the pentagon?
about 61 minutes apart.
What is the way a mineral breaks or splits apart?
The rocks cracks on everything
How does water help break rocks apart?
Water expands when it freezes. In winter, water gets into minute cracks in the rocks and then as it freezes it expands and makes the cracks bigger. So more water gets in then freezes so the cracks get bigger still until the rocks break apart.
What do plants do to cause weathering?
As plants grow out from cracks in rock, they push the rock further apart, and eventually it breaks apart.
Water in the cracks of a freezes and breaks apart the rock mechanical or chemical?

What jobs did Isaac Newton have apart from an inventor?

What is caused when water enters in cracks in the asphalt on roads and cars run over these cracks pushing the water into the asphalt and breaking it apart?
Pot holes
