Ok ok no fret im here to help as best as i can :)
Weathering is a process that breaks down or changes rocks into smaller pieces. Various atmospheric aspects are responsible for weathering processes. Weathering is different from erosion. Erosion is the movement of rock pieces and sediment from one area to another. Weathering is the breaking down of rocks and erosion is a wearing away of rocks. There are two main types of weathering: physical (or mechanical) weathering and chemical weathering. Quite often, both forms of weathering will occur together

Physical weathering is also known as mechanical weathering. This type of weathering occurs when rocks and other landforms are broken down by physical factors in the environment. These physical factors include wind, water, sun, ice and temperature changes

Answer:

C. About 18 percent of the variation in blood pressure can be explained by a linear relationship between blood pressure and caffeine consumed.

Explanation:

Here, r = 0.428

∴ We can say it will give a positive curve, as 0.428 indicates it is a positive correlation.

Though the amount of correlation is low, still it is positive and more than 0.4

So, nearly about 18% of the variation in the blood pressure can be observed by the consumption of caffeine water. As consumption of caffeine water and blood pressure is both increasing so we can say that r= 0.428 will give a positive linear curve.
