None of the above
What is the difference between physical and chemical weathering?
Physical weathering only happens with plants and animals, while chemical weathering is caused by technology.
Physical weathering is breaking up rocks by force, while chemical weathering involves chemical processes.
Physical weathering is what you observe, and chemical weathering is invisible.
Physical weathering and chemical weathering are the same thing.
Which is an example of chemical weathering?

Water reacting with minerals on rocks
All of the above
What is the main point of the passage?
Weathering breaks up rocks and moves them to other places over time.
Guadalupe Peak will get shorter as time passes.
Weathering, erosion, and deposition work together to break down rocks, move sediment, and let sediment settle out and build new landforms.
Without weathering and erosion, Earth would have no mountains.
