B.) biological weathering
C.) physical weathering

Answer 1

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

When metal is corroded due to moist air then this process is known as rusting of iron.

When a nail rusts then it represents that metal has turned into metal oxide. This means that chemical composition of substance has changed.

Thus, we can conclude that Jonah finds a rusty nail outside. The nail is an example of chemical weathering.
