Weathering breaks down rocks, soils, minerals, wood, and artificial materials through contact with the earth’s atmosphere, water, and biological organisms. Weathering occurs on-site, in the same place with little or no movement. There are two main types of weathering, including physical and chemical weathering. If you would like to understand further about weathering, this is the quiz for you.
