Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Erosion is the opposite of deposition, the geological process in which earthen materials are deposited, or built up, on a landform. Most erosion is performed by liquid water, wind, or ice (usually in the form of a glacier). If the wind is dusty, or water or glacial ice is muddy, erosion is taking place.
Detailed explanation-2: -Erosion is the physical removal and transport of material by mobile agents such as water, wind or ice. These agents are mobile at the Earth’s surface and are responsible for the transport of sediment. Erosion and mass wasting appear to be similar processes but have distinctly different causes.
Detailed explanation-3: -The agents of erosion are ice, water, wind, waves and gravity.
