Drupady [299]

Answer:

a. Water erosion carries away solid materials during the water cycle. Wind erosion scours and abrades Earth’s surface.

Explanation:

Water erosion deals with water while wind deals with air. The water erosion is usually as a result of rainfall which is a part of the water cycle. It carries away part of the uppermost layer of the soil and deposits it elsewhere thereby resulting in the continuous eroding of the soil.

Wind erosion deals with heavy wind particles blowing across the soil surface. Friction usually occurs and the soil wears out with time.
