Answer:
Weathering is the naturally occurring process of breaking down of rocks by agents like water, ice, plants, animals, and the changing of temperature. Weathering leads to the fragmentation of rocks which eventually becomes soil.
There are three types of weathering, namely: physical, chemical and biological.
