The 5 agents of Physical weathering, Provide an example for each
Animal Action: burrowing, Freezing/Thawing: frost wedging, Plant Growth: grow in crack of rock, Release of Pressure: erosion removing material from rock surface, Abrasion: particles carried by wind, water, ice wearing away rock.
400
The name of Florida's Landform Region

400
Often results from the freezing and thawing of water in cracked layers of rock beneath the soil
creeps
