What happen to the rock? What do you think is the cause of

changes in the rock’s surface?
Rocks break up into smaller pieces and
resulted in the formation of soil and
different landforms.

This is also the reason why we have an

amazing rock formation.

Plants are the main source of food for

animals and people. Without soil there
will be no plants. It takes thousands of
years before a rock turns into soil.

occupies a greater space in the rock. As
kaolin is formed, it expands. The other
minerals in the rock are loosened by this
expansion. This results in the breaking of
the surface of the rock. The rock slowly
breaks into smaller pieces.

Other acids aside from carbonic acid may

form when water combines with other
substances. These acids help in the

the rocks. As the root of the plant grow
bigger the roots of the plant grow bigger
which will make the cracks on the rocks
grow bigger. This causes the rocks to
crumble into smaller pieces.
 Animal

Ants, earthworm, moles, and other

burrowing animals dig their habitats in
the soil or rocks. In this process, these
animals expose fresh rock surfaces to
different weathering processes. Chicken,
dogs, wild animals, and other animals
scratch on rocky surfaces and also expose
them to weathering process.

Frost

The repeated freezing and melting of

water are called frost wedging. Water
sips into the cracks and pores in rocks. If
the water freezes because of very low
temperature, it expands and therefore
breaks the rock. Unlike other substances,
water expands when water freezes.

Human

Human activities also cause weathering

of rocks which include drilling, building
roads and tunnels, wells, mining
activities, and quarrying. Huge pieces of
rocks are broken into smaller pieces so
that people could use them.
