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:
The correct answer is option C. "The magnetic field of earth keeps changing because of the suns activity"
Explanation:
The magnetic field of Earth is not a steady force, and is affected by external forces such as the suns activity, particularly during strong solar/geomagnetic storms. The changes in the magnetic field of Earth explains why the auroras Are sometimes seen at northern Ohio. The auroras are created by energetic electrically charged particles accelerating along the magnetic field, if the location of the magnetic filed changes, the location of the auroras change as well.
Answer:
it would not be protected.
