Answer 22

Ok, You still not have answered, @averley do you know what weathering is?

Answer 23

Because before we can tackle the question that is a must you need to know.

Answer 24

yes

Answer 25

What is weathering then?

Answer 26

It's the breakdown and change of rocks and minerals on Earth's surface.

Answer 27

Good! The exact definition is:

Weather is the act of wearing away or changing the appearance or texture of (something) by long exposure to the air.

Answer 28

So if we know this we can narrow down our answer choices. What do you think the answer is?

Answer 29

@averley do you have at least a guess?

Answer 30

maybe Amazon Jungle.

Answer 31

No, it would not be that, but that is a good guess!

The amazon jungle would not have a problem with weathering because the amazon jungle is not exposed to air, it is exposed to water.

The answer would in fact be correct if we were talking about water erosion.

Answer 32

Lets look at the next two choices, The North Pole and South Pole.


The north pole and south pole are surrounded by water and is made of snow. Do you think those could possibly be the answers?

Answer 33

I thought the north pole but that was wrong.

Answer 34

The North Pole would not be it because weathering is the act of eroding hard surfaces like rock.


The North and South pole cant be it, so what would the answer be? Come on you got this

Answer 35

so then it'd be New York

Answer 36

Yay! Good job!
