Chemical weathering and mechanical weathering can be influenced by plants. Plants contribute to mechanical weathering when their roots growth through cracks and crevasses in soil or rock.

Mechanical weathering breaks rocks into smaller pieces while chemical weathering changes the composition of the rocks.
