Question

once rock has been broken up by weathering it can undergo ______. destruction, corrosion, convection, erosion

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Destruction: Too vague; not a specific geological process after weathering.
• Corrosion: Primarily for metals reacting chemically, not rocks post - weathering.
• Convection: A heat transfer process, irrelevant to rock breakdown aftermath.
• Erosion: After weathering breaks rocks, erosion (transport of weathered material by agents like wind, water) occurs.

Answer:

D. Erosion
