Explanation:

Weathering is the process of breaking down rocks (and minerals) at or near the Earth’s surface, which can involve physical, chemical, or biological processes. The first option describes a type of precipitation event (heavy rainshowers) impacting land, which is not weathering. The second option, while not a complete definition (weathering isn't only about color change but includes breakdown), is closer as it mentions breaking down rocks (even with the color change aspect, which can be part of chemical weathering).

Answer:

The option: "The process of breaking down and changing the color of rocks."
