Detailed explanation-1: -Slow changes of Earth’s surface include the movement of the continents, uplift, weathering, erosion, and deposition.
Detailed explanation-2: -The broken pieces of rocks are carried away by wind, glaciers and rivers. This process is called as erosion. The eroded material is finally deposited as pebbles, sand or mud. Therefore, the sequence of processes is: weathering, erosion, deposition.
Detailed explanation-3: -Erosion occurs when natural agents, such as wind, water, or ice, transport the loosened soil and broken-down rock away. Erosion prevents earthen materials from building up in the place the materials formed. In most cases, erosion is a slow process that occurs inconspicuously over long periods of time.
Detailed explanation-4: -Hence the sequence will be weathering, erosion and transportation.
Detailed explanation-5: -Weathering is the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on Earths surface. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and minerals away.
