answer:
1. Physical, or mechanical, weathering happens when rock is broken through the force of another substance on the rock such as ice, running water, wind, rapid heating/cooling, or plant growth. Chemical weathering occurs when reactions between rock and another substance dissolve the rock, causing parts of it to fall away.
2.Erosion – The process of moving rocks and soil downhill or into streams, rivers, or oceans. • Deposition – The accumulation or laying down of matter by a natural process, as in the laying down of sediments in streams or rivers.3. Bedrock is the hard, solid rock beneath surface materials such as soil and gravel. Parent rock, also referred to as substratum, refers to the original rock from which something else was formed.4. Residual soils are products of chemical weathering whose characteristics depend upon environmental factors of climate, parent material, topography and drainage, and age. Transported soil is weathered soil deposits transported from one place to another by natural agents like water, wind, and more.
