1.Frost Wedging (Freeze-Thaw)
Water expands by 9 percent when it freezes. As it expands, it exerts up to 4.3 million pounds per square foot of pressure. Since water seeks low points, repeated freezing and thawing can lead to deep vertical fissures as cracks are extended downward. Cracks that allow entry of roots lead to similar wedging.
2.Crystal Formation
Crystal formation cracks rock in a similar way. Most water contains dissolved salts. When water in rock fissures evaporate, the salt concentration increases, which leads to crystallization. This occurs in arid regions where the humidity fluctuates widely, so that the salt can be redissolved and carried into new fissures.

Answer:
If I increase the temperature of the water I think it will go faster because the water comes to a boil.
Explanation:
Answer: B) the destruction of plant and animal habitats by humans
Explanation:
The global biodiversity is reducing due to natural and human induced environmental changes such as volcanic eruption, landslides, earthquakes and human induced forest fires, nuclear explosions and others. Apart from the changes in the environment. The human beings are directly responsible for the reduction in the area occupied by the biodiversity of plants and animals for maintaining the urban infrastructure.
On the basis of the above explanation, this can be said that B) the destruction of plant and animal habitats by humans is the relevant option that should be included in the poster.
