Question
which event occurs after earths surface experiences weathering?
wind carries sediments to a new location.
ice forms cracks in large rocks.
moving water breaks sediments into pieces.
surface materials wear down into sediment
Weathering breaks down rocks and surface materials. After weathering, erosion (such as wind carrying sediments) occurs. Ice forming cracks (frost - wedging) is a type of weathering. Moving water breaking sediments is also a form of weathering. Surface materials wearing down is the process of weathering itself. Wind carrying sediments to a new location is an event that occurs after weathering as it is part of the erosion process which follows weathering.
