Erosion breaks rocks down further and then moves them. Forces like wind and water move the rock pieces. They mix with matter like sand to become sediment. Weathering and erosion help shape Earth's surface.
Produces unconsolidated material (parent material) from which soil is formed.
Provides plant nutrients
Results in the formation of secondary minerals, the most important group being the clay minerals.
Rocks are the starting point for the weathering processes:
big rocks are weathered to smaller rock smaller rocks are weathered to the minerals that make up the rocks. secondary minerals are formed from primary minerals . Hope it helps..
