Answer:

1) Water seeps into pores and hairline fractures of rock.

2) Water expands in volume as it freezes, causing cracks in rock to widen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The frost wedging process is when water gets into the cracks of rock and freezes. When water freezes, it expands, so the crack expands. If you repeat this process multiple times, you will split the rock in half.

Therefore, answers B) and C) are correct.
