False, erosion is the gradual wearing down,wearing away of something. In nature it refers to such phenomena as the destructive effect of rivers on their banks, tides on shores, wind and weather on mountains
The word is used in metaphor and analogy too.
Some members of the Augusta Golf Club regard the admission of women as an erosion of the Club's charter principles
The process by which natural forces move weathered rock and soil form one place to another is called (EROSION)
No, the process of erosion doesn't start a clock on a rock. Erosion occurs over time due to natural forces like wind, water, and ice breaking down the rock's surface. The rate of erosion can vary depending on factors like the type of rock, climate, and topography.
False. Galileo believed that the natural state of an object was to be in motion. He famously challenged the Aristotelian idea that objects naturally came to rest.
False
Wind erosion, the transportation of weathered material can take place anywhere in the natural world, not just in deserts. However, the process is more noticeable and effective in deserts, which are wide, open, dry and flat.

true
False. The process that lays down sediment in a new location is deposition, not erosion. Erosion is the process of wearing away or carrying off soil and rock by wind, water, or other natural agents.
False
False. More runoff can actually lead to more erosion, as the increased water flow can carry away soil particles and contribute to erosion.
True. Erosion is the process by which the land surface is worn away by natural forces like wind, water, and ice.

False. Erosion control should begin before the first evidence of erosion. When building bridges over waterways, construction contractors are already devising ways to control erosion so the bridge does not fall into the water later on.
False. The process that lays down sediment in a new location is deposition, not erosion. Erosion is the process of wearing away and removing sediment from a location.
