Neko [114]

Answer:

mechanical weathering

Explanation:

As a definition, mechanical weathering is the disintegration and decomposition of rocks on or on the earth's surface produced by different atmospheric, climatic and biological agents.

Weathering is a permanent process in nature.

It is also defined as a static process by which the rock breaks into small fragments, dissolving and decomposing to form new minerals. This is the way in which the removal and transport of detritus then results in erosion. It follows that weathering, by reducing the consistency of the stone masses leads to the erosion process.

The causative agents of the weathering of the stones, (external geological agents) can be physical (mechanical), chemical and biological.

Match the water cycle element in column 1 with the characteristics in column 2.
hjlf

Answer:

Oceans = > 97 percent of Earth's water.

Glaciers = > 70% of Earth's freshwater

River = > Powered by gravity

Groundwater = > 100 times more water than all rivers and lakes

97% of the water on Earth is not drinkable as it is salt-water in oceans.

Of the 3% that is freshwater, Glaciers make up about 70% which means that we don't have access to a significant amount of freshwater either.

Of the available freshwater to us, groundwater comprises 98% which enables it to be 100 times more than all rivers and lakes.

Rivers are powered by gravity in that they flow from areas of higher elevation to areas of lower elevation as gravity pulls it downwards.
