All rocks on the surface of the Earth are subjected to this caused by wind, water, heat, plants and animals.

Weathering

The expression of a trait on the actual gene, not how the organism presents.

Genotype (not phenotype)

Name given to the two days a year when both hemispheres receive about the same amounts of daylight and darkness.
