mechanical and chemical weather are the two basic types of weathering. Mechanical weathering is when rocks get fractures and water fills the fractures and it splits it into smaller rocks

Two types of basic weathering are heat and ice.

A basic type of weathering is chemical a example is when a chemical like chlorine spills on it, and it um well i don't know what would happen.

The two types of weathering are extreme heat and chilling ice!

Hot and cold are two types.one is snow

The two basic types of weathering are chemical, and mechanical. A specific example of chemical weathering is a sinkhole.

There are two types of weathering, Mechanical and Chemical. Mechanical weathering is when weathering is done by an animal or human.

Heat and ice are both examples of chemical weathering.Mechanical is when something like an animal or human breaks the rock by smashing it

The two types of weathering is mechanical and chemical weathering. Mechanical weathering is when its done by a human. Chemical weathering is when weathering is done by elements and stuff. :)

The two basic types of weathering are heat and ice. For example a specific type of weathering can be extreme heat that melts down a rock changing its form.

Weathering is the breaking down and decomposition of rocks and minerals in response to atmospheric factors. The two types of weathering are physical and chemical weathering. Biological processes can contribute to both types of weathering. Weathering happens in place without the rock moving. The process is called erosion if the rocks and minerals are moved by water, wind, ice or gravity.

physical weathering is when a human or animal breaks it down

AutumnP said...

Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soils and minerals as well as artificial materials through contact with the Earth's atmosphere, biota and waters. Weathering occurs in situ, or "with no movement", and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the movement of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity.
Two important classifications of weathering processes exist – physical and chemical weathering; each sometimes involves a biological component. Mechanical or physical weathering involves the breakdown of rocks and soils through direct contact with atmospheric conditions, such as heat, water, ice and pressure. The second classification, chemical weathering, involves the direct effect of atmospheric chemicals or biologically produced chemicals (also known as biological weathering) in the breakdown of rocks, soils and minerals.[1]
The materials left over after the rock breaks down combined with organic material creates soil. The mineral content of the soil is determined by the parent material, thus a soil derived from a single rock type can often be deficient in one or more minerals for good fertility, while a soil weathered from a mix of rock types (as in glacial, aeolian or alluvial sediments) often makes more fertile soil. In addition many of Earth's landforms and landscapes are the result of weathering processes combined with erosion and re-deposition.

The two trypes of Weathering are, Mechanical and Chemical.

The two types are Chemical And mechanical. An example of Chemical weathering is acid rain. An example of mechanical is wind.

Chemical mining is when they dissolve the rocks and mechanical mining is when they use hammers, drills, and other digging tools to break rocks. Chemical and Mechanical are two types of weathering.
