Answer:

Weathering and erosion. Weathering is the process where rock is dissolved, worn away or broken down into smaller and smaller pieces.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are mechanical, chemical and organic weathering processes. Organic weathering happens when plants break up rocks with their growing roots or plant acids help dissolve rock.
