erosion


200
Build up of moved particles
deposition


200

300
Changes to rocks involving WIND, WATER, OR ICE
Physical Weathering


300
When the substances that make up a rock are changed and its structure is weakened, that is called
chemical weathering

running water


400

Pacific Rim 


500
Sediment is moved by these three things
wind, water, and glaciers


500
Even though physical and chemical weathering can change rocks in different ways, both kinds of weathering cause rocks to 
break into smaller pieces 
500

answers will vary

California



500
Do the effects of weathering and erosion become obvious to us overnight? Why or why not?
No, generally it takes years for us to see the effect of these processes.
