What can you say about the image? Do you see any
difference?

I see this is a rock or a group of rock.There is a diff
erence them the first pic is more have like realistic 
and full of alive and the second pic is more like rea
listic too but it's not really that alive.

What’s More
Activity 5
1. How do animals cause erosion?
Animals cause erosion in other ways too. When too many
animals live in one place, they tend to eat and trample all
the plants. Without the plants to protect the soil, it is much
more likely to be eroded by wind and water. Animals cause
weathering and erosion on rocky shorelines.

2. How do human activities affect the rate of erosion?

Humans affect erosion rates in a number of ways across the

globe. ... Human activities such as repeatedly walking or
biking the same trails or areas can also contribute to erosion
slowly over time. Forest fires also contribute to soil erosion, as
vegetation previously holding the soil in place is often destroyed.
Activity 6

A. Water can erode soil material. Especially if the

soil is bare, dry and erodible erosion by rain
particles can occur.
B.Wind is another factor that causes soil erosion. Dry
soil particles (especially if they are fine) can move to
other areas if wind exists.
C. Ice is another issue of erosion. Ice, when it is melting,
can carry soil particles.

Activity 7

1. Fall- A fall or topple happens when rocks and other

sediments fall through the air and land at the bottom
of a slope.
2. Slide- A slide happens when a section of soil or rock
suddenly gives way and moves down a slope.
3. Flow- Flows include mudflows, debris flows or
lahars (superheated water that moves down an
erupting volcano). Flows occur due to a large amount
of water or ice present in the soil or material.
4. Spread- A spread is an extension of a cohesive soil
or rock mass combined with a general subsidence of the
fractured mass of cohesive material into softer
underlying material.
5. Topple: Topple failures involve the forward rotation
and movement of a mass of rock, earth or debris out of
a slope.

What I Can Do
Activity 11

Earth’s surface is the arena for most life and all

human activity, yet what lies beneath our feet is
as mysterious as it is familiar. Earth scientists or
not, we recognize hills, mountains, glaciers,
deserts, rivers, wetlands, and shorelines. If a good
deal of rain falls, floods may occur; if a storm
strikes the coast, the beach may erode; if we are
careless with our soil, we may damage or even lose
it.

Additional Activities

Erosion relies on transporting agents such as

wind, rivers, ice, snow and downward movement
of materials to carry weathered products away
from the source area. As weathered products are
carried away, fresh rocks are exposed to further
weathering. Over time, that mountain or hill is
gradually worn down.
