What else can I help you with?
How do Land forms or topography associated with formal structures in massive igneous rocks occur?
Through the processes of weathering and erosion.
Does weathering must take place before erosion?
Weathering does not necessarily have to take place before erosion. While weathering is the breakdown of rocks into smaller particles, erosion is the process of transporting these particles to a new location. Weathering can occur simultaneously with erosion or even after erosion has started.
In what order do deposition weathering and erosion occur?
first the weathering happens which causes an erosion which makes deposition.
Do weathering and erosion occur on the Moon?
No because there is no wind or water on the moon
What are the cycles that occur in nature?
Cooling,Weathering,Erosion,Compaction,And Cementation.
Do weathering and erosion happen at the same time?
Weathering and erosion are related processes that often occur simultaneously. Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, while erosion transports these pieces to a different location. Both processes work together to shape the Earth's surface over time.
Does weathering and erosion occur naturally?
Yes. Mostly by wind, water and ice.
Can both erosion and weathering occur on the moon or other planets?
Erosion and weathering are processes that can occur on the Moon and other planets with atmospheres. On bodies without an atmosphere like the Moon, other processes like micrometeoroid impacts and solar wind can cause surface modifications that are analogous to erosion and weathering.
What makes a sediment occur?
Weathering and erosion transform rock into sediments of certain sizes.
What order does erosion deposition and weathering occur?
Weathering breaks down rocks into smaller pieces, which are then transported by erosion to new locations. Deposition occurs when the eroded material settles in a new location, building up layers of sediment. So, the order is weathering, erosion, and then deposition.
Where does weathering and erosion occur most of the time?
Weathering and erosion mainly occur in areas with exposed rocks and soil surfaces, such as mountains, coasts, and river valleys. These processes are more prominent in areas with frequent or extreme weather patterns, such as areas with high rainfall, strong winds, or temperature fluctuations. Human activities can also accelerate weathering and erosion in vulnerable areas.
How long does weathering and erosion take for rocks?
The rate at which weathering and erosion occur on rocks can vary greatly depending on factors such as rock type, climate, and the presence of organisms. Weathering and erosion can range from taking thousands to millions of years to significantly alter or break down rocks.
