Explanation:
- Mechanical weathering involves the breakdown of the rocks into small pieces by the external support such as pressure whereas Chemical weathering involves the breakdown of the rocks takes place by the chemical process.
- Mechanical weathering is a physical change that is caused by the movement of wind and water whereas chemical weathering takes place when the chemicals present in the air or water get mixed with minerals or rocks.
- Mechanical weathering involves:
Abrasion, freezing, thawing, exfoliation.
- Whereas Chemical weathering involves:
dissolution, oxidation, carbonation, hydrolysis.
The most appropriate answer is "As the growing planet was clearing its path around the sun, two large planetessimals collided, tipping the growing planet". This phenomenon happened to the earth in the early stages of the development of the solar system. Scientist theorize that a planet called 'Thea' collided with the Earth. This collision resulted in the present tilt in the Earth's axis and the creation of the moon.

Well, Ecuador is a country filled with rainforests, which occur where it rains a lot, the western side of mountain ranges, where storms build up and stall, and it could be during el nino, which means a large abnormal amount of storms in pacific tropical areas.
Seems very basic, the ocean is above the plate, the plate material is heavier than water (it being rock). That's pretty much all of it. The plates grind a little and new land pushes up at plate boundaries but this does not seem to be related. The heavier material is below and the lighter above, those being rock and water respectively.
