Detailed explanation-1: -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. Water, acids, salt, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering and erosion.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are many ways that rock breaks down. The three main types of weathering are physical, chemical, and biological weathering. Physical weathering is the mechanical breakdown of rocks and minerals. Chemical weathering is the chemical breakdown of rocks.
Detailed explanation-3: -Erosion refers to the phenomenon of gradual wearing away of the landscape by natural agents like water, wind and ice. Suggest Corrections. 1. Similar questions.
