How does Earths Surface Shape and Reshape

This article explores how Earth's surface continually shapes and reshapes through various geological processes. Erosion is defined as the movement of weathered materials by wind, water, and glaciers. The role of physical weathering, caused by plants, ice, and water, is highlighted, including how plants grow in rocks. Additionally, chemical weathering alters rock structures over time due to chemical reactions, often facilitated by water and warmth. The article also discusses the effects of volcanic activity and earthquakes, emphasizing their impact on landforms and rapid changes in Earth’s surface.

  1. How does Earths Surface Shape and Reshape By Ryan Rivera

  2. Erosion • Erosion=movement of weathered materials • Wind water and glaciers is erosion

  3. Physical Weathering • Plant, ice, and water all form physical weathering • Plant’s in the rocks is a part of physical weathering

  4. Chemical Weathering • Chemicals cause rock to change over years • Water and warm temperatures form chemical weathering

  5. Volcanoes • Volcano=a cone shaped land form • It can melt rocks into more lava

  6. Earthquakes • Earthquake = can cause major rapid changing • It will move all the waves to come a lot faster
