Wind<span> abrades rock by sandblasting, this is the process in which wind causes the blowing off millions of grains of sand, which bumps across the surface of rocks' surface. it can also happen due to deflation, which is when wind removes the top layer of fine sediment/soil to cause desert pavement. 
</span>Glaciers, however, abrade rock by simply using Gravity. when enough ice builds up on a slope, the ice begins to move downhill. The steeper the slope, the faster the glacier. As glaciers move forward, the material that they picked up scratch and abrade the rock and soil underneath the glacier, which causes erosion<span>.</span>

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLY ASAP What economic issues are or could be causes of conflict in Southwest Asia? Why do these issue
Ivanshal [37]

The economic issue that could be a cause of conflict in Southwest Asia are subsidies (government giving money to industries or businesses to keep prices low) especially in the areas of oil and natural gas.

Subsidy issues lead to conflict because they were initially meant to protect those that needed assistance but in reality seemed to benefit the rich and powerful. Once subsidies were in place they were difficult to remove because they were seen to be a “right”. Once they were taken out of place, Middle Eastern citizens were upset due to unreasonably high prices. This led to many subsidies being put back into effect.

The issue of subsidies often leads to conflict due to political regime changes causing shifts in opinions.
