Limestone formations in caves are considered what kind of weathering
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Chemical weathering

Explanation:

Caves are formed by the dissolution of limestone. Rainwater picks up carbon dioxide from the air and as it percolates through the soil, which turns into a weak acid. This slowly dissolves out the limestone along the joints, bedding planes and fractures, some of which become enlarged enough to form caves.

Chemical weathering involves the decomposition of rocks due to chemical reactions between minerals such as calcite with water and gases in the atmosphere (e.g. carbon dioxide and sulphur dioxide). The solution of soluble minerals is particularly important in limestone landscapes.

Solutional caves or karst caves are the most frequently occurring caves. Such caves form in rock that is soluble; most occur in limestone, but they can also form in other rocks including chalk, dolomite, marble, salt, and gypsum.

Essentially, water reacts with carbon-dioxide to form carbonic acid. It then seeps slowly through the roof of the cave, depositing calcium carbonate, which hardens and builds up over time to form a stalactite.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The plants in the light formed bubbles because they released oxygen gas, This is because bubbles that are formed takes the places of oxygen molecules O2. Oxygen is released during photosynthesis through the process called light-dependent reaction.  The light-dependent reaction occurs only in the presencee of light. So, if bubbles formed are equivalent to oxygen molecules released in light-dependent reaction, then it is expected for bubbles to be found only on the leaves on those plants that were in a well-lit room.
