The breaking down of Earth's surface-
can be caused by different things:
Ice
root wedging
flowing water
abrasion- rocks bumping and hitting each other
wind
weather
6
After pieces of the Earth are broken down through weathering, those pieces are moved through erosion. It’s the process of moving things from one place to another.

8
After pieces of the Earth are carried by erosion they are deposited somewhere else. Deposition means to deposit things somewhere else.
