    The document discusses how weathering and erosion constantly change the earth's surface through processes like deposition, acid rain, plant roots, landslides, and wind. Deposition occurs when soil or sediment is carried by water and deposited in new locations, potentially along with harmful materials. Weathering such as from acid rain or plant roots can break down rocks, while erosion from landslides or wind can transport pieces of rock to new areas.

    The earth's
    surface is always
    changing
    because of
    weathering and
    erosion.
    Deposition
    ▪ When soil is washed away from one place
    to another place it can carry harmful
    materials like chemicals and fertilizer.
    ▪ Deposition is the building up of rocks and
    dirt.
    ▪ Rising water traps sediment and deposits
    it in new locations.
    ▪ Rain can wear away rock and carry tiny
    pieces of the rock to a new places.
    ▪ Acid rain breaks apart limestone.

    ▪ Plant roots can wedge their way in between


    small cracks in rocks.

    ▪ Landslides destroy everything in their paths, they


    even crush rocks together.

    ▪ Extreme weather can cause accelerated erosion.


    ▪

    ▪
    Example
    Wind carries small pieces of rock
    off the side of a mountain.
