Question

what is the role of weathering and erosion in creating different landforms on the earth

Answer 1

Following is the role of weathering and erosion in creating different landforms on earth:

• Weathering of solid rocks results in cracking and softning which ultimately becomes powder while erosion.
• Erosion erodes or removes thin layers of dust from the loosen rocks.
• Different eroding agents like water and wind carry the dust particles until the process of depositon occurs.
• Finally deposition results in the formation of different landforms like plateau,hills, deserts etc.
• The process is sharp and time taking.
