Answer: Minerals and salts move across the land or leach downwards
Step-by-step explanation:
Erosion is the breaking-down of rock or soil and its movement from one place to another. Salt and other minerals can dissolve in water and move across the land. They can also slowly break down in the soil, where they are either utilized by plants or moved by water into the subsoil. When minerals move below the range of a plant’s roots, leaching has occurred.
