| Rock disintegration | Occurs when exposed to weather. (41) |
| Sediments | Smaller rock particles formed as result of disintegration. (41) |
| Mechanical weathering | Process of breaking rocks into smaller pieces, changing size and shape. (43) |
| Hot, wet climates | Chemical weathering is likely. (42) |
| Dry climates | Mechanical weahtering is likely. (43) |
| Chemical weathering | Process of changing rock's chemical composition. (42) |
| Ice Wedging, Root wedging, and exfoliation | Examples of mechanical weathering. (44) |
| Ice wedging | Breaks rock because of pressure changes when ice freezes. (45) |
| Sedimentary rocks | Form from sediments or chemical action. (46) |
| Process of forming Sedimentary rocks | Cementaiton of weathered sediments and influence of pressure (compaction). (47) |
| Soil | Product of the weathering of rocks and organic material on Earth's surface. (48) |
| Rate that soil forms | Depends on the climate and type of rock. (49) |
| Metamorphic rock | Created when sedimentary or igneous rock is exposed to enormous heat and pressure. (50) |
