Answer:

Explanation:

The granular weathering is a physical weathering process in which the inner structure of the rocks becomes unstable and it disintegrate into small particles and fragments. This weathering results in formation of grains from the rocks.

The temperature can be an important agent for this as with the increase or decrease of the temperature the internal components of rocks may become unstable like the water may seep inside the rocks on decrease in temperature the ice will develop inside the rocks which will make the structure of the rock unstable and the rock will disintegrate.
