Answer:

mechanical weathering and chemical weathering

Explanation:

Weathering is the physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils.

Both mechanical and chemical weathering are responsible for the process.

Mountain ranges are worn down with time due to the action of weathering.

Rocks can be broken down over time with prolonged action of mechanical weathering via thermal expansion and contraction, alternate wetting and drying, pressure release etc.
Chemical weathering usually by the action of water dissolves rocks.

Answer: C. A plant absorbing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis

A plant absorbing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis can be considered as assimilation in the carbon cycle. 

Explanation:

The process of carbon fixation is called assimilation in carbon cycle. In the atmosphere carbon occurs in the form of carbon dioxide. 

By the process of carbon fixation this carbon dioxide is converted into carbon compounds and these act as source of energy in an ecosystem.

Photosynthesis is an example of carbon fixation process. Other processes like chemo-synthesis also fix carbon. Majority of carbon fixation takes place in marine environments.
