Erosion is caused by a river, which is water. Water is rain, rain is weather. Therefore, they are the same.

In what order do deposition weathering and erosion occur?

first the weathering happens which causes an erosion which makes deposition.


Is evidence that ground water causes erosion and deposition?

Groundwater can cause erosion and deposition through processes like chemical weathering of rocks, which weakens them and leads to erosion. Additionally, the movement of groundwater can carry sediment and deposit it in new areas, contributing to deposition. These processes can be significant in shaping landforms and landscapes over time.


What are the main causes for the development of volcanoes and mountains and earthquake?

1. Weathering 2. Erosion 3. Deposition


How are erosion and weathering related?

Erosion causes the movement of material down hill. Weathering usually leaves the material being effected in place.


What causes change in color in a sedimentary rock?

weathering erosion transportation deposition compaction/cementation and lithification changes sediments to sedimentary rocks. High pressure and temperatures changes them to metamophic rocks


What does erosion cause but weathering does not?

Erosion causes the transport and movement of weathered materials, like rocks and soil, from one place to another. This movement can lead to changes in the landscape and the reshaping of landforms, which weathering alone cannot accomplish.


What causes the breakdown of rocks?

The major cause of weathering and erosion is?

Wind and water are the major causes of weathering and erosion.


Which process causes hillsides and mountains to gradually get smaller?

Denudation. Denudational activities helps in the changing of rock and landforms on earth. The forces which helps promote denudation are reffered to as the Agents of Denudation. They include, running water, ice, waves and wind. And they act by weathering, erosion, transportion and deposition.


What happens when weathering erosion and deposition work together to change the earth's surface?

== == First off deposition is the last step out of Erosion, Weathering and itself. Chemical weathering causes the erosional effects of glaciers which also incude deposition. An example is that soil in the nothern parts of the United States are deposited of material once carried by a glacier, which pretty much starts the whole process over again. Beginning with Chemical Weathering and ending with Deposition.


Does depositison causes the most change in landforms?

weathering


What do weathering erosion and deposition do to the earths surface?

Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, erosion transports these pieces to new locations by water, wind, or glaciers, and deposition drops these pieces in new locations, shaping the Earth's surface over time.
