Question

drag the tiles to the correct locations. the tiles can be used more than once.

the chart contains statements that describe a particular rock. determine whether each characteristic of the rock increases or decreases its likelihood of being impacted by weathering and erosion.

\

$$\begin{tabular}{|l|l|} \\hline it is a relatively soft rock made of calcite. & \\\\ \\hline it is relatively hard and made of quartz. & \\\\ \\hline it is a porous rock. & \\\\ \\hline it does not have any fractures or cracks. & \\\\ \\hline it is located in a mild and dry climate. & \\\\ \\hline it is located in a stream bed on the slope of a hill. & \\\\ \\hline \\end{tabular}$$

tiles:

  • increases likelihood of weathering and erosion
  • decreases likelihood of weathering and erosion

Explanation:

Analizar la resistencia mineralógica y dureza de la roca

  • Calcita (blanda, soluble en ácido): aumenta la probabilidad de meteorización y erosión.
  • Cuarzo (duro, químicamente estable): disminuye la probabilidad de meteorización y erosión.

Evaluar las características estructurales de la roca

  • Porosidad (permite entrada de agua): aumenta la probabilidad de meteorización y erosión.
  • Ausencia de fracturas o grietas: disminuye la probabilidad de meteorización y erosión.

Evaluar los factores ambientales y de ubicación

  • Clima templado y seco (baja humedad, menor meteorización química): disminuye la probabilidad de meteorización y erosión.
  • Lecho de un arroyo en una pendiente (alta energía hidráulica y gravedad): aumenta la probabilidad de meteorización y erosión.

Answer:

Característica de la rocaEfecto sobre la meteorización y erosión
It is relatively hard and made of quartz.decreases likelihood of weathering and erosion
It is a porous rock.increases likelihood of weathering and erosion
It does not have any fractures or cracks.decreases likelihood of weathering and erosion
It is located in a mild and dry climate.decreases likelihood of weathering and erosion
It is located in a stream bed on the slope of a hill.increases likelihood of weathering and erosion
