Answer:

Explanation:

Mechanical weathering increases the rate of chemical weathering.

As rock breaks into smaller pieces, the surface area of the pieces increases. With more surfaces exposed, there are more surfaces on which chemical weathering can occur.

Chemical weathering is different from mechanical weathering(physical weathering )  because the rock changes, not just in size of pieces, but in composition.

That is, one type of mineral changes into a different mineral.

Chemical weathering works through chemical reactions that cause changes in the minerals.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer and Explanation:

Nondisjunction occurs when homologous chromosomes fail to segregate during anaphase I or sister chromatids fail to segregate during anaphase II. The result is an addition or loss of one or more chromosomes. Nondisjunction is associated with disorders like Down's syndrome due to an extra chromosome, Klinefelter's syndrome or Turner's syndrome. These phenomenon where one has three members of homologous chromosome is called trisomy.
