Question

Erosion and Weathering can cause changes in earths surface but how does erosion alone changes the earth surface.

Answer 1

Answer:

The action of erosion alone can change the earth's surface. Erosion can wash away nutrients on the earth's surface, change the appearance of the soil of a particular area over time, can bore holes, that form caves, change landscapes for example when the earth is hit with gully erosion by continuous water runoff over time. Erosion can move soil to a new area.

Explanation:

Weathering involves breaking down rock into smaller pieces without any form of formal movement of those broken rock pieces. These processes that can lead to weathering are caused by mechanical, chemical, and organic processes which can happen over time. Erosion can now move broken rock pieces or soil to another place by water or wind. Weathering and erosion constantly change the Earth's surface.
