Weathering = Breaking down of rocks either mechanically or chemically

Transportation = Moving pieces of rock by ice, wind, or water.

Deposition = Occurs when the energy of transported materials decreases

Uplift = Upward movement of underground rocks to the surface

Lithification = Process if turning sediment into rock

I haven’t done this in years, let me know if I’m wrong.
