Which statement correctly describes how a landform is formed?

Which table correctly classifies statements about weather and climate?
Which statement best describes the processes of weathering and erosion?
Weathering and erosion are directly responsible for the breakdown of any type of rock into smaller particles and the carrying away of the loose sediments.
