Because the earth is made of rock. therefore, rock doesn’t grow. However, tectonic plates within the earths crust shift that cause earthquakes and tsunamis.
A rock on Earth's surface tends to be weathered more because it is exposed to wind, precipitation, and the effects of gravity. A rock buried underground does not experience weathering from wind, precipitation, or gravity.
