Answer:

Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil, and minerals as well .

Step-by-step explanation:

in the same place, with little or no movement, and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the movement of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity and then being transported and deposited in other locations.
