Answer:
Ice wedging, pressure release, plant root growth, and abrasion can all cause mechanical weathering. In the crack and pores of rocks, the force of its expansion is strong enough to split the rocks apart. This release of pressure causes the rock to expand. As the rock expands, cracks form in it, leading to exfolexfoliation.
