What happens to rocks when they become weathered?
they get stronger
they get larger
they get smaller
they do not change
Breaking down of rocks caused by chemicals !
erosion
physical weathering
chemical weathering
deposition
Rainwater mixed with carbon dioxide in the air !
glacier
weathering
erosion
acid rain
Acid rain can cause ....................
erosion
deposition
physical weathering
chemical weathering
Acid in acid rain combines with the rock material and form new chemical that breaks down rock over time .
erosion
deposition
physical weathering
chemical weathering
Breaking down of rocks into smaller pieces of the same kind of rock !
erosion
deposition
physical weathering
Is NOT one cause of physical weathering
Water
ice
pressure
wind
Water can carry particles of rock , soil , and sand which scrape against larger rocks and become smaller . this is ........................
erosion
physical weathering
deposition
chemical weathering
Waves can cause rocks to break down and get weathered .
true
false
How can a rock be weathered by wind ?
wind blows and cool lava .
wind carries small particles that can weather rocks .
wind can cause cracks in rock
Ice takes up more space than water does .
true
false
Ice can cause weathering !
Ice takes up less space than water does .
ice falls and break down rock.
frozen water takes up more space and causes rocks to split .
ice has no effect on rock
When a rock's surface gets hotter , it
get smaller
expands
freeze
split
When the rock's surface gets colder , it ...................
expands
gets larger
gets smaller
extends
Changing in temperature can weaken the rock .
true
false
living things can cause weathering .
true
false
Plant can sprout in a crack and the getting bigger roots cause the crack to split .
weathering caused by ...............
water
temperature changes
wind
living things
Water can cause both physical and chemical weathering .
true
false
Which of the following is weathering caused by temperature changes ?
frozen water takes up more space and cause deepens cracks until the rock split .
plant may sprout in cracks and getting bigger roots cause the rock to split .
rock's surfaces may constantly expand and contracts when it gets hotter or cooler , this can weaken the rock.
Small particles carried by wind can weather rocks.
Living things can cause physical weathering !!
Animals and plants give off chemicals that can cause weathering .
plant may sprout in cracks and getting bigger roots cause the rock to split
people's activities add chemicals to environment.
small particles carried by wind can weather rocks .
Colder areas have more chemical weathering than warmer areas .
true
false
Drier areas have less chemical weathering than rainy areas.
true
false
Water and warm temperature are important for chemical weathering .
true
false
The process of carrying away weathered bits of rock !
deposition
erosion
weathering
contaction
Which of the following is NOT erosion caused by water .??
frozen water takes up more space which deepens cracks and causes the rock to split !
Flowing water carries away pieces of rocks and sand .
flowing water can slowly crave grooves into land as it carries away weathered material .
rainwater mixes with carbon dioxide in the air and form an acid that weaken the rock .
waves constantly change the shape of the shoreline .
true
false
Waves can cause erosion !!
the force of waves pounding against rock on the shore can cause rock to break down .
Waves pound against the shore , breaking off pieces of rock and carry away the pieces .
water craves grooves into land as it carries away weathered materials .
erodes ( erosion )!!
break down
weaken
deepen
carry away
