it probably going to be a physical change because when the stalagmites form in the cave its still going to be a cave and nothing really is going to change the cave.
Yes, the formation of stalagmites is considered a physical change. It involves the deposition of minerals from water onto cave floors, without any change in the chemical composition of the minerals themselves.
Stalactites are found hanging from the ceilings of caves, while stalagmites grow upwards from the cave floor. Stalactites point downwards, and stalagmites point upwards.
when you shout into a cave the sound that comes back to you is an example of an echo of your shout
The temperature in a cave remains relatively stable because the earth acts as insulation, trapping the heat from the sun during the day and releasing it slowly at night. This, combined with the lack of direct sunlight in caves, helps to maintain a constant temperature inside.

it is physical
physical because doesn't matter if it forms its still a cave
Yes, the formation of stalagmites is considered a physical change. It involves the deposition of minerals from water onto cave floors, without any change in the chemical composition of the minerals themselves.
The formation of stalagmites in a cave is a chemical change. This process occurs when water containing dissolved minerals drips from the ceiling of a cave, leaving behind deposits of minerals as it evaporates. Over time, these mineral deposits accumulate and solidify into stalagmites.
The formation of stalagmites in a cave is a physical change. It occurs when mineral-rich water drips from the cave ceiling, leaving behind layers of minerals as it evaporates. Over time, these layers build up to form the stalagmite.
The formation in a cave that rises from the floor are called stalagmites
Not really, it's more of evaporation. Rain water percolating through the earth laid over a limestone bedrock dissolves the limestone. The lime-water drips through cracks and forms caves. Evaporation of the drips leaves behind a tiny amount of limestone, that slowly forms the stalactites and stalagmites.
Stalactites hang tightly to the ceiling of a cave, while stalagmites might grow to reach the cave floor. The names reflect their formation as water drips from the ceiling to form stalactites, and drips onto the cave floor to form stalagmites.
Yes, the formation of stalactites and stalagmites occurs in the zone of saturation. Groundwater drips through the ceiling of a cave and leaves behind mineral deposits when the water evaporates, forming stalactites. When the water drips onto the cave floor, it leaves deposits that build up into stalagmites.
stalagmites are on the cave floor, stalactites are on the cave roof. stalagmites are mighty like Hercules, they hold the ceiling up. +++ An easy mnemonic: "c for ceiling, g for ground". Another is "Stalagmites might reach the roof [and sometimes do, forming a 'column'] and stalactites hang on tight."
Yes, precipitation of calcite can occur in caves through a process called cave formation or speleothem formation. This happens when dissolved calcium carbonate in water drips or flows into the cave, allowing calcite to crystallize and accumulate as stalagmites, stalactites, and other cave formations.
Stalagmites are formed when mineral-rich water drips from the ceiling of a cave and deposits calcium carbonate, which crystallizes and accumulates over time to create a conical or mound-shaped structure on the cave floor.
