Name a type of body of water.

• river

• mountain

• lake

What is weathering?

• The process of breaking down rocks, soil, and minerals through exposure to the atmosphere, water, and biological organisms.

• The process of breaking down rocks, soil, and minerals through exposure to fire and heat.

• The process of breaking down rocks, soil, and minerals through exposure to gravity and pressure.

• The process of building up rocks, soil, and minerals through exposure to the atmosphere, water, and biological organisms.

What are the two types of weathering?

• physical weathering and atmospheric weathering

• mechanical weathering and chemical weathering

• thermal weathering and organic weathering

• erosional weathering and biological weathering

What is erosion?

• The process of building up rocks, soil, or other materials on the Earth's surface by natural forces such as water, wind, or ice.

• The process of breaking down of rocks, soil, or other materials beneath the Earth's surface by natural forces such as water, wind, or ice.

• The process of creating new rocks, soil, or other materials on the Earth's surface by natural forces such as water, wind, or ice.

• The process of wearing away or breaking down of rocks, soil, or other materials on the Earth's surface by natural forces such as water, wind, or ice.

How does erosion occur?

• Erosion occurs through the action of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

• Erosion occurs through the action of plants and trees.

• Erosion occurs through the action of wind, water, ice, or gravity.

• Erosion occurs through the action of human activities like construction and mining.

What is the water cycle?

• The water cycle is the process of water disappearing from the Earth's surface.

• The water cycle is the continuous movement of water on, above, and below the Earth's surface.

• The water cycle is the movement of water only on the Earth's surface.

• The water cycle is the process of water turning into ice.

Name the different stages of the water cycle.

• The different stages of the water cycle are melting, freezing, boiling, and sublimation.

• The different stages of the water cycle are absorption, filtration, distillation, and desalination.

• The different stages of the water cycle are erosion, deposition, weathering, and sedimentation.

• The different stages of the water cycle are evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.
