Name:___________________ Date:_________ Class______ WEATHERING AND EROSION Classify what is happening in each scenario Weathering or Erosion 1. _____ A rock hits another rock as it is carried down streaming causing both rocks to break. 2. _____ The wind picks up all the smaller particles leaving behind only bigger rocks that form desert pavement. 3. _____ Glaciers take large rock material and push it forward, as the ice melts, it leaves the rocks behind. 4. _____ The iron in a rock is turned to rust when exposed to oxygen, weakening the rock and making it easier to break. 5. _____ Extreme temperature changes in the desert cause the rock to expand and contract and eventually cause it to split. Tell me if the weathering process named below is Physical weathering or Chemical weathering 6. _____ A rock is broken apart by the water in a crack that freezes and turns to ice, expanding in the crack. 7. _____ Water mixed with carbon forming carbonic acid that eats away at marble and limestone. 8. _____ A plant takes root in a small crevice of a rock, as the plant grows, its roots push on the edges of the rock, breaking it. 9. _____ Prairie dogs dig in the ground making smaller, loose piles of ground. 10. _____ Lichen from plants create weak acid that extracts certain minerals from the rock, weakening it.
