Answer:
A rock's exposure to the weathering elements and its surface area can affect its rate of weathering. Rocks that are constantly bombarded by running water, wind, and other erosion agents, will weather more quickly. Rocks that have a large surface area exposed to these agents will also weather more quickly.
Explanation:
Properties of the Parent Rock ;
- The mineralogy and structure of a rock affects it’s susceptibility to weathering.
- Different minerals weather at different rates. Mafic silicates like olivine and pyroxene tend to weather much faster than felsic minerals like quartz and feldspar. Different minerals show different degrees of solubility in water in that some minerals dissolve much more readily than others. Water dissolves calcite more readily than it does feldspar, so calcite is considered to be more soluble than feldspar.
-
A rock’s structure also affects its susceptibility to weathering. Massive rocks like granite generally to not contain planes of weakness whereas layered sedimentary rocks have bedding planes that can be easily pulled apart and infiltrated by water. Weathering therefore occurs more slowly in granite than in layered sedimentary rocks.

Answer:
Bones
Explanation:
Bones are tissues that provide the body with rigidity. It also acts as the body's supporting structure.
The bone helps to maintain the body's shape at all times and provide a surface for the attachment of muscles. Joints are the points of contact between two bones. The bones, muscles and joints are very important in the locomotion(movement) process because there’s a synergy between them.
Conduction is when heat is transferred through direct contact.when molecules get heat they move faster and vibrate then bumping in to other particles transferring the heat passing the energy around
Irritation Threshold is defined as the name applies. It is the threshold or maximum point at which an individual has become irritated or annoyed.
