HEY!

Sudden change in temperature causes fissures in the rocks through which water penetrates to motivate chemical weathering along with sudden contraction and expansion due to change in temperature peels out the upper layer of rock known as exfoliation. The process involved in it is weathering.

HOPE IT HELPS :)

Explanation:

$<body bgcolor = "pink"> <fontcolor = "red"> The process by which concentric scales, plates, or shells of rock, from less than a centimeter to several meters in thickness, are successively spalled or stripped from the bare surface of a large rock mass. It is caused by physical or chemical forces producing differential stresses within the rock, as by expansion of minerals as a result of near-surface chemical weathering, or by the release of confining pressure of a once deeply buried rock as it is brought nearer to the surface by erosion. It often results in a rounded rock mass or dome-shaped hill.</p><p>The process involved in exfoliation is weathering$
