Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Weathering is a process by which rocks or any other material get disintegrated into small sediments and parts under the influence of physical or chemical agents.

Frost wedging is a physical weathering process in which the water enters into the rock. The freezing of this water under the influence of cold external temperature condition can disturb the internal structure of the rock. This process will cause the disintegration of the rock into parts and small sediments.
