Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

    Weathering is the process of transformation of rocks by disintegration (physical) or decomposition (chemical) of their structures, giving rise to sediments and interfering with sedimentary processes such as erosion, diagenesis and pedogenesis (soil formation).

    Rocks appearing on the surface become exposed to external or exogenous relief transforming agents such as water and wind force. As a result, they disintegrate in oxidation or “washing” processes of their covers, and remain exposed to temperature variations. All of these effects are considered weather events.

notsponge [240]

Answer:

A stream in a bedrock valley located 5000 feet above ultimate base level that is draining a mountainous region in the headwater of a stream system would have a _____.

high gradient, and a narrow and shallow channel with no floodplain

Explanation:

A bedrock valley has no alluvium mantling the bedrock over which it flows. Alluvium (consists of sand, gravel, silt, clay, and gravel, as well as other organic matters) mantlings or coverings are usually developed in the lower part of the river with the formation of floodplains and deltas.  They may also be deposited at lakes or river banks.  Headwater streams deliver nutrients and other organic materials (e.g. fallen leaves) to downstream regions to sustain downstream aquatic life.
