Erodibility refers to the ease with which a particular soil can become detached and transported by wind, water, or ice. Erosivity is a description of the ability of typical natural forces (wind or rain) in a geographic area to erode existing soil. These characteristics interact, and the combined effect can be significant. Assigning values to erodibility and erosivity is helpful in predicting potential erosion and soil loss from any parcel of land. When the soil is easily detached and transported (erodibility is high), significant soil loss can occur even in relatively mild rain or wind events. When the climate is particularly rainy or windy (erosivity is high), even well consolidated soils can be eroded. when both are high, extreme measures will be needed.

Is metamorphic rock eroded easily?
Metamorphic rock is generally more resistant to erosion compared to sedimentary rock because of its dense and tightly interlocking mineral structure formed under high pressure and temperature. However, its erodibility can vary depending on the specific minerals present and the rock's texture. In areas with significant weathering or under extreme conditions, even metamorphic rock can be eroded over time. Overall, while not as easily eroded as some other rock types, metamorphic rocks can still be worn down by natural processes.

Name four factors that influence contractile force and two that influence velocity and duration of contraction?
The four factors that influence contractile force are the number of muscle fibers stimulated, the relative size of the fibers, the frequency of stimulation and the degree of muscle stretch. Factors that influence the velocity and duration of contraction are the muscle fiber type, load and recruitment.
What is the difference between erosivity and erodibility?
Erosivity refers to the ability of rainfall or other weather-related factors to cause erosion, while erodibility refers to the susceptibility of soil to be eroded. Erosivity is more about the force or intensity of the erosive agent, whereas erodibility relates to the characteristics of the soil that make it more or less likely to erode.
