<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>Running water on the Surface of Earth.</u></em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Weathering can be defined as the phenomenon of breaking or disintegration of the rocks, minerals, soil etc. due to coming in contact with the Earth's atmosphere such as the Water, Wind, Organisms etc.

In this process the rocks, minerals disintegrate into lot of small particles.

But the rate of weathering on Earth is at a very unusual or unique rate because Earth's surface has the presence of the running water that leads to the high rate of surface weathering.

<em><u>Therefore, the reason of Earth's rapid weathering rates is Running water on the Surface of Earth.</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

Why are hot springs and geysers is found in areas of present or a past activity
Lady_Fox [76]
<span>Hot springs and geysers are often found in areas of present or past volcanic activity. The hot spring forms when water deep underground is heated by a nearby body of magma or hot rock. The hot water rises and collects in a natural pool; when rising hot water and steam become trapped in a narrow crack, pressure builds until the mixture sprays above the surface as a geyser.</span>

Binding of a signaling molecule to which type of receptor leads directly to a change in the distribution of substances on opposi
Mrac [35]

When two sides of a membrane are in contact with each other, the distribution of ions will alter as a result of the binding of a signal molecule to a ligand-gated ion channel.

<h3>What is a ligand-gated ion channel?</h3>

Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are membrane proteins that are structurally integral and feature a pore that permits the controlled passage of particular ions across the plasma membrane. The electrochemical gradient for the permeant ions drives the passive ion flux.

When a chemical ligand, such as a neurotransmitter, attaches to the protein, ligand-gated ion channels open. Changes in membrane potential cause voltage channels to open and close. When a receptor physically deforms, as in the case of pressure and touch receptors, mechanically-gated channels open.
