- Q9A very large storm occurs along the coast. The powerful waves wash away sand and move some larger rocks on the shore. This is an example of:weathering and erosionerosiondepositionweathering120sEditDelete
- Q10A river flowing through soft rock dissolves some of the rock and carries this material downstream. This is an example of:weatheringweathering and erosiondepositionerosion120sEditDelete
- Q11Most caves are formed through chemical weathering. Which of the following is the best explanation of how this process takes place?Plants’ roots dig deep into rock, causing it to break and open up into caves.Earthquakes shake the ground, causing large pieces of rock to break loose, forming caves.Digging animals dig out holes in the rock, creating caves.Carbonic acid (acid rain) seeps into the ground, dissolving some of the rock, creating caves.120sEditDelete

- Q15Is it possible to have weathering without erosion? ExplainYes it is possible because weathering causes erosion, and the weathered rock does NOT always get moved (eroded).No, because erosion and weathering do not have anything to do with each other in any way.Yes it is possible because erosion happens first, then weathering.No, while it IS possible for weathering to occur without erosion it is highly unlikely. The rock would simply pile up and, at some point, would eventually be moved by wind or water.120sEditDelete
