Answer:
Temperature changes can also contribute to mechanical weathering in a process called thermal stress. Changes in temperature cause rock to expand (with heat) and contract (with cold). As this happens over and over again, the structure of the rock weakens.

Explanation:
Huge difference in temperature I.e. extreme hot and extreme cold leads to expansion and contraction of the molecules of rocks respectively. That's why, huge difference in temperature contributes to the weathering process.
