HEY BUDDY HERE IS UR ANSWER

Mechanical weathering breaks down existing rocks and minerals. Mechanical weathering keeps the chemical makeup of materials the same. Ice wedging, abrasion, and some actions of living organisms and humans bring about mechanical weathering.

Mechanical weathering involves mechanical processes that break up a rock: for example, ice freezing and expanding in cracks in the rock; tree roots growing in similar cracks; expansion and contraction of rock in areas with high daytime and low nighttime temperatures; cracking of rocks in forest fires, and so forth.
