Question

kyler goes to the desert every year on vacation and passes the same sandstone butte. every year it looks a little smaller. which process is changing the sandstone butte over time? 30 years ago present day wind wind o heating and pressure o cooling and crystallization o weathering and erosion o melting

Explanation:

The problem is about the process changing a sandstone butte over time in a desert. Heating and pressure (metamorphism) changes rock type, not size reduction. Cooling and crystallization forms igneous rocks, not erode sandstone. Melting is for rock to liquid, not surface change. Weathering (breakdown) and erosion (transport/removal) by wind in desert cause the butte to shrink, matching the observation.

Answer:

C. weathering and erosion
