The correct answer is - chemical weathering.

The deserts are in general covered with sands. These sands are the result of weathering, mostly caused by the mechanical weathering of the wind. With the process of weathering of some of the minerals are created another minerals, like the iron oxide, which is possible only if the weathered minerals contained iron of course. Because the iron naturally has a reddish color, as the sends accumulate more and more, the desert starts to get that distinctive reddish coloration of its landscape.

What is summer school and what do they do there??
dalvyx [7]
I'm sorry nobody has told you about it yet. They should. You're scared of something just because you don't know what's in there or what it looks like. Summer school is a chance to improve your grades, because it's a class where they teach the same subjects again, so you can review it and learn it a little better than you did the first time. The only difference is that they go a little faster, because the summer is shorter than the regular school year. And that's the whole story. There's nothing to be afraid of. When I went to Summer school a few years ago, I loved it. I started to understand stuff that I didn't understand very well the first time, and I really improved my grade. Good luck.
