Question

plz help How is Earth's surface most likely to change as water freezes and expands on a mountain side over time? Erosion will cause the ice to crack the rock. Physical weathering will cause the ice to crack the rock. Chemical weathering will cause the water to dissolve the rock. Deposition will cause the water to break the rock into sediment.

Answer 1

Physical weathering

Step-by-step explanation:

The unfreezing and refreshing causes friction which wears down the rock

Answer 2

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Earth's surface as water freezes and expands on a mountain slope will cause ice to break the rock. This occurs because the ice occupies a larger volume than the liquid, so it displaces the rock and causes it to break. When the water that accumulates in the rocks freezes, its volume increases in solid-state and exerts a greater pressure, enough to break the rock.
