Aiden and Jayla recently learned that weathering (root wedging and ice wedging) breaks down rocks. They think that root wedging
and ice wedging have caused the cracks in the sidewalks where they live. Why do sidewalks in New Jersey have so many more cracks than the sidewalks in Florida? *
1. Alessandra recently learned that erosion is the process of rocks breaking down as they move from one location to another. Alessandra decides to make observations of rocks on Monster Mountain. Alessandra takes photos of rocks at the top and at the bottom of Monster Mountain. Some of her photos are shown above. What effects of erosion do you see in Alessandra’s photographs?
