What is gradual and rapid?
or
What is slow and fast?
When water gets inside a crack in a rock and it freezes, this process repeated over time creates the breaking dow of the rock. What is this process classed?
What is ice wedging?
When rocks, dirt, or soil quickly fall down the side of a landform like a mountain or canyon.
What is a landslide?
The process of laying down sediment, can form landforms such as deltas
What is deposition?
