What else can I help you with?
What environment would detrital sediments predominate in?
Detrital sediments would predominate in environments such as rivers, deltas, and beaches where erosion and transportation of rocks and minerals occur. These sediments consist of weathered fragments of pre-existing rocks and are typically deposited by the action of water or wind.
The moving of weathered rocks and soil by wind water or ice is called?
erosion, which is caused by wind or water
How are a delta a beach and a dune created?
Deltas are created by pieces of rock being weathered, washed away by erosion and deposition at the mouth of the river where it meets an ocean. Beaches are created by deposition of sand by waves. Dunes are created by erosion of sand by wind.
How is rock without cracks in it weathered?
If it doesn't have cracks in it it can still be weathered. Wind, water, hot, and cold can make the rock chip away.
What is the removal if weathered materials from a location by running water wind ice or waves?
Erosion
What determines how quick a rock is weathered?
Mostly water determines but even wind helps in it.
What is the process of weathered material being moved by wind water or ice?
The creation of energy is weathered material being moved by wind, water, or ice. . This is done by creating energy through kinetic movement. It also happens to be clean energy, due to absence of fossil fuels.
What the movement of rock particles by wind water ice or gravity?
Erosion. Weathering is the physical and chemical breakdown of rock. Erosion is the removal of of weathered sediments. Transport is the movement of weathered sediments (say in suspension in river water) during the erosion process. Deposition is the laying down of the transported sediments in a new location.
What is formed by deposition a delta or valley?
A delta is formed when sediment is deposited at the mouth of a river. A valley is formed when a river runs through a flat surface, erodes the soil, and creates a depression. So delta=deposition and valley/canyon=erosion. I hope that helped!
What is the process by wich wind and water remove and carry small pieces of weathered rockfrom one place to another?
The process by which wind and water remove and carry small pieces of weathered rock from one place to another is called erosion. This erosion occurs as the moving wind or water wears away the rock surface and transports the loosened particles to new locations. This movement of rock particles can lead to the formation of landforms such as valleys, river beds, and sand dunes.
Are there any other ways weathered rocks are moved around by natural processes?
Transportation of weathered rock can occur via flooding, river, glacier, wind, landslides, earthquakes, meteor impacts, and volcanism.
Agents of erosion and their respective weathered paricles?
ice, snow, wind, animals, rain, water and people.
