What is weathering?
A very weak acid formed in solution when carbon dioxide dissolves in water
The result of air pollution
Breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on earths surface
Telling the weather
How is Chemical Weathering caused
By rain water reacting with mineral grains in rocks
By pouring Clorox on an ant hill
By the rock being affected by water
Mixing chemicals with rain
Who deseveres the key lime pie the most?
Yall
Us
What is Acid Rain
Acid mixed with rain
Dirty rain
The result of Air Pollution
How does Carbonic acid work
It forms with water and makes a super acid and then breaks rocks

what are considered to be living organisms?
Many forms of life
An individual form of life
Something that moves on its own
A working civilization
Whats Oxygen? /gen
smoke
Wind
Air
A gas essential to all organic life on earth
What does Physical/ Mechanical weathering do
Cause rocks to break apart and crumble
Causes rocks to melt
Causes rocks to transform
Which process does abrasion fall under
physical
chemical
biological
How does thawing work
ice water slowly breaks the rock away under the water
rocks fall in water, freezes, and the pressure breaks them apart
water gets in the cracks of rocks and freezes, breaking them more
hail chips away at the rocks
How do animals contribute to the cycle
they use the rocks to help barricade their homes
they eat the rocks
they use the rocks as weapons
they dig in the rocks for shelter

all of us <3
are plants able to break rocks apart?
YES
NO
How are both physical and chemical weathering rates are affected by climate, topography and rock composition?
it melts the rocks
rain and temperature will help break down the rocks much easier
it makes them more appetizing to the animals
the process of being broke down and eroded by natural forces is
plant growth
erosion
abrasion
acid rain
deposition is...
animals digging inside the rocks
rock transformation
crushing rocks
rocks/minerals/sediment being carried away by wind, water, ice, etc
