Which statement describes what might happen to a large rock in a windy desert?

It doesn’t change because there is no water to wear it down.

It doesn’t change because it’s always hot.

It is reduced and shaped by sand in the wind that wears it down.

It grows larger as sand gets caught in its crevices.

The answer is C, the rock would wear down because of the blowing sand

i would say c because the rock could be turned into a larger rock, but the wind would most likely cause wind abrasion (causes the rock to deteriorate)
